Poultry researchers are attempting to improve the creation of poultry and sanitation. In the field there are bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees. PS is a animal science discipline concerned about finding better and more effective approaches to raise poultry giving delicious and nutritious eggs and meat.

Poultry science degree programs focus on linking the poultry rearing areas of science economics and production students interested in poultry science can complete a degree in poultry science or a degree in avian or animal science with or without a focus on poultry science. Courses in these programmes include anatomy, genetics, poultry judging you can also choose graduate degree in poultry science and graduate degree in animal science.

Universities that offer poultry science courses:

• Agriculture and life sciences Texas university

• University of New England

• North Carolina state university at Raleigh

Poultry are tamed flying creatures kept by people for their eggs, their meat or their feathers. These winged animals are most ordinarily individuals from the (fowl), particularly the request Galliformes (which incorporates chickens, quails, and turkeys).

Sixteen billion flying creatures are raised every year for utilization, the greater part of these in industrialized, manufacturing plant like production units.
