Career Opportunities: |
Birds play an increasingly important role in human society. Domesticated birds provide food, feathers and companionship; wild birds are significant players in nearly every terrestrial ecosystem. Avian biology majors consider birds as both economically and environmentally important organisms. Bird biology, behavior, productivity and management are all subjects avian biology majors study in detail. Graduates may work with birds reared for food purposes, such as chickens, or they may work with companion birds or game birds.
