Strategies to Lure Students to the Pig Industry
A discussion was held on the methodology on how to recruit potential
students, undergraduate as well as postgraduate, to do studies with the focus
on the pig industry. These discussions among others touched on scholarships,
funding of research chairs, recruitment of post-doctoral fellows, hosting
students for a week of practicals at Baynesfield etc. It will also be necessary
to deviate from the classical fields of study to a more multi-disciplinary
approach where for example, an anthropologist is included in the team to
study human behaviour.
