The Dairy Science Department's teaching, research and
outreach missions in both production and processing position us in a
unique and creative leadership role in California's largest agricultural
industry. The dedication, expertise, and enthusiasm of our faculty are
recognized regionally, nationally and around the world for its relevance
and value to the field of Dairy Science and related industries. Students
can select programs of study that focus on either the animal production
aspects or product technology of Dairy Science. We emphasize to our
students both an in depth understanding of the scientific and technical
skills in the areas of dairy products technology and production, as well
as skills for critical thinking and understanding of the complex issues
facing the industries we serve. The Department is one of the few programs
with a teaching mission that is strengthened through the operation of both
a modern dairy and production creamery. In addition, the Dairy Products
Technology Center has an international reputation for applied science and
service in the field of dairy foods. The Center's dynamic faculty and
graduate program create innovations, solve critical problems and provide
essential services that help ensure our relevance and importance.
Department faculty are active in research and
related professional activities and serve as thesis advisors for students
working toward a Master of Science. Collaborative activities with other
faculty throughout campus are encouraged. To learn more about Cal Poly
