The physical and emotional needs of animals is at the heart of everythingwe do.Workingwith research-active staff, our students contribute to studies that are helping us understand animals like never before. As animal welfare continues to climb the global agenda, the pet care and animal healthmarkets are booming.* You’re joining the animal industry at a very exciting time, with ever- expanding career opportunities. We’re creating an evidence base of best practice that’s changing the way we interact with animals, and we couldn’t do it without the creativity, innovation and new ideas our students contribute.

Our access to industry expertise is unrivalled. We host trainers, coaches, behaviourists, veterinary professionals and more on campus.
