Question

I have to dissect a pig for one of my classes in school and I will be in contact with the pig but I will have gloves on but will I need to take ghusal when I come home? Also I have that class in the morning meaning I have school after that for 5 more hours. Will my learning utensils and jacket become napaak since it is winter because I will have to use them after dissecting?

Answer

Avoid touching such animals.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
