On our Equine Science degree you will study the reproduction, physiology, behaviour and nutrition of horses.
We run this course in partnership with Abingdon and Witney College. You'll be taught at Oxford Brookes with some sessions at Witney Campus and the college's stud farm at Common Leys.

You will have opportunities to publish your own research and attend relevant conferences.
On graduating you will have an up-to-date understanding of scientific principles and management theories. As well as the skills to implement them, whether progressing into employment within the equine industry or elsewhere.

-
Horse Breeder
