China Agricultural University (CAU) has introduced China's first undergraduate program focused on companion animals to meet the growing talent needs of the pet industry, CCTV News reported.

Offered by the university's College of Animal Science and Technology, the program lasts four years, and graduates will be awarded a bachelor's degree in agricultural science. It covers courses on variety breeding, nutrition and metabolism, feed processing, reproductive physiology and welfare and behavior of companion animals. This year, the program will enroll 50 undergraduate students.

“Companion animals, which live with human beings, conduct close communication and emotional exchanges, and bring happiness to people's lives, are often referred to as pets. This is why this program is commonly called the ‘pet' major,” said Liu Guoshi, vice-dean of CAU's College of Animal Science and Technology.

According to Liu, the new major aligns with market needs. The pet industry has become a new driving force of animal science, calling for a large number of professionals with expertise in companion animal care.

“In addition, there is a growing demand for pet-related professionals in universities, research institutions, animal clinics and relevant management departments and organizations,” Liu added.

A staff member at CAU's College of Animal Science and Technology said the program's curriculum focuses on animals such as cats, dogs and horses. Graduates of this major are expected to have access to pet-related companies and equestrian clubs.

Previously, CAU offered similar programs about “pet” major, including a master program of companion animals at its Yantai Institute in Shandong province and a minor course of companion animal science, both of which have been well-received.

Research shows that China's urban pet (dog and cat) consumption market has exceeded 300 billion yuan ($41.79 billion) in 2024, with an annual compound growth rate of 11.9 percent over the past decade. Additionally, there are over 500,000 pet-related companies across the country.
