Can one do a graduate degree on the scientific, ethical, and policy issues surrounding the roles of animals in society, and if so, where?
Yes, a Masters degree at the Tufts Center for Animals and Public Policy, which is at the Cummings School for Veterinary Medicine. Students in the Tufts M.S. in Animals and Public Policy program examine the wide range of scientific, ethical, and policy issues surrounding the roles of animals in society, and build the knowledge and skills needed to make a difference in the lives of animals and the people who interact with them (all of us!). For more information, visit the Tufts Center for Animals and Public Policy website at http://www.tufts.edu/vet/cfa. The application deadline for the fall 2009 class is March 16, 2009.
