The National Association of Animal Breeders is encouraging students to apply for the third annual NAAB Doak Graduate Fellowship. Named after Dr. Gordon Doak, who dedicated 42 years to the bovine genetic improvement industry, the award is part of the industry's ongoing commitment to advance the fields of bovine genetics and male reproduction physiology.
The fellowship presents a unique opportunity to any student that pursues a career in the genetic improvement industry. The selected recipient will earn a fully funded Master of Science degree in bovine genetics or male reproduction physiology at a major university of their choice.
‘NAAB is proud to support talented students who represent the future of our industry" says NAAB President Jay Weiker. "We are continuously impressed with the quality of applicants. Often from agricultural backgrounds, these students embody the passion and drive of the next generation to advance this industry and improve the quality of the global dairy and beef populations for a changing world."
More information on the NAAB Doak Graduate Fellowship can be found at: www.naab-css.org. Applications are due by December 1.
