During the camp, youth will engage with NC State students, faculty, and staff to explore animal science and learn more about the livestock and agricultural industries and related careers. No previous livestock species experience is necessary.

  • Visits to the beef and dairy cattle, swine, sheep, goat and horse educational units
  • Run laboratory experiments
  • Attend farm and industry tours and hear from industry guests
  • Explore the science, technology and biotechnology of livestock industries and the interaction of animal production and food safety
  • Participate in leadership activities
  • And make many new friends from across North Carolina and beyond.
