Congratulations Rose
Above: Professor Yani Garcia, Dr Rose Phillipzen and Adjunct Professor Ian Lean.
Dr Rose Phillipzen received an Honorary Fellowship of the University of Sydney.
Rose is a member of Dairy UP’s Steering and Advisory Board and Head of Livestock and Genetics as Australian Fresh Milk Holdings, Leppington Pastoral Company.
Associate Professor John House spoke of the enormous contribution that Rose and her family have made to the School of Veterinary Science, supporting teaching and research in the faculty over many years.
Rose gave an eloquent occasional address drawing on her educational experience at Sydney University, the importance of being challenged in her school career and her deep love of cattle and farming. She emphasized the importance of veterinary medicine in modern agriculture.
The DairyUp team is delighted to see Rose honoured by the University as part of the on-going links between the University and the dairy industry.
