ROSEWORTHY OPENDAY 09

SUNDAY 13 SEPTEMBER 11AM-3PM

WHY COME TO ROSEWORTHY? WHAT ARE WE DOING THAT'S EXCITING AND NEW? HOW DO WE MAKE AND IMPACT ON YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE?

The Roseworthy Campus Open Day is your opportunity to find out the answers to these questions, and more.

Nationally renowned as Australia's first agricultural college, Roseworthy Campus is this month opening its doors to potential new students, their families, friends and other members of the community.

Open Day is the all-important annual event that provides information about study in Veterinary Science, Animal Science and Agricultural Science, as well as life on campus.

The event puts you in touch with current students and staff who will answer your questions about studying at Roseworthy and the career opportunities those programs can lead to.

University staff will also be on hand to discuss any academic program offered by the University of Adelaide, not just those taught at Roseworthy.

Tours of the campus will include visits to the residential college, library, computing facilities, farm, and lecture theatres.

There will also be a large number of activities and displays, including:

  • a virtual tour of the new facilities being built for the School of Veterinary Science;
  • demonstrations of learning tools, such as Betsy, the (dummy) baby cow, which helps to train vet students in pregnancy diagnosis and staging;
  • how science can unlock the secrets to what is happening in an animal, and how research and teaching link to real production solutions.
