Veterinary school is not the only career path that allows you to work with animals. By providing a combination of coursework and experiential learning, the <strong>Professional Science Master\u2019s (PSM) program in Zoo, Aquarium, and Animal Shelter Management <\/strong>prepares students for an applied career with animal organizations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our vision is to provide future leaders in animal welfare and conservation with the professional skills they need to amplify their influence within animal organizations. This highly flexible and mobile degree is responsive to the needs of our environment and our communities. We collaborate within and across professional animal organizations that represent the leading edge of animal welfare and conservation. In addition to fostering an inclusive environment that enables curious, creative, and courageous minds, we work independently and collaboratively to pursue answers, challenge assumptions, and exercise ethical responsibility within this field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With an emphasis on hands-on learning, PSM students gain the necessary skills to lead an organization with animals in a variety of capacities. Although the name of the program lists our main areas of study (zoo, aquarium, and animal shelter), there are diverse experiential and career options available to explore throughout the program and into the field.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current job titles of recent graduates include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Executive Director<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Development Director<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Behavior &amp; Enrichment Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Animal Shelter Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Conservation Engagement Programs Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manager of Humane Education<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Guest Services Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Animal Trainer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education Programs Manager<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Community Engagement Coordinator<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keepers in elephants, sea lions, primates, and hoof stock<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And more!&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have a calling to work with animals?
