practically to the industry both in America and the UK.

Katie AdamsBSc (Hons) Wildlife Conservation and Ecology

Reaseheath set me on the right path. It’s really hard to decide which direction

has good connections within the industry too, which has helped a lot.

next generation.

Modules focus on applied equine biomechanics, behavioural theory, exercise physiology, equine health and nutrition, parasitology, reproductive physiology and veterinary physiology, laboratory techniques for athletic performance management, sports psychology and rider coaching.

Year 3 modules build on core science themes from the first two years and further develop student knowledge of exercise physiology, advances in equine nutrition and reproduction, in addition to considering equine injuries and their rehabilitation with input from a vet specialising in equine lameness diagnostics. Students have the flexibility to tailor their studies to career choices or interests, with options of equine parasitology, biomechanical analysis of performance, rider coaching and performance, welfare and ethics or advances in complementary therapies, alongside an honours research project.
