Your Path to CALS
At NC State, we are always moo-ved by cows, but especially on #NationalCowAppreciationDay. 🐮
A training program at @perduefarms is boosting career readiness for recent CALS grad Madison Turano. 🎓
Since graduating in May with a bachelor’s degree in animal science, Turano has been extending her education through a year-long, full-time position as a feed mill management trainee. Perdue Farms is a fourth-generation, family-owned, U.S. food and agriculture company with several poultry farms and facilities in North Carolina.
“I’m using all of the skills I gained from the animal care labs and my nutrition and feed milling classes; my education from NC State provides the base upon which I can solve problems,” she said. “My teamwork and cross-disciplinary collaboration skills have helped me solve issues in real time. I’m applying the production skills and data analysis I learned while conducting research, which improves efficiency.”
