You’ll apply theory to practice, gain real-life experience, and develop research skills. As a small and specialist university, we offer consistently high quality teaching, as well as personalised support as part of a rural and inclusive community. Our students benefit from our industry connections and placement opportunities, graduating ready to embark upon successful careers. Our commercial animal businesses on campus, including canine and equine therapy centres, a livestock farm, and dog grooming salon, provide additional opportunities to gain practical and business experience.

"I’ve had a passion for the animal industry since I got my first dog as a child. Hartpury has such great industry links, a large animal collection, and loads of opportunities to gain experience. I couldn’t imagine studying anywhere else."
