Equine Performance and Rehabilitation

This course is ideal for those who want to integrate advanced science with high-level equine performance. Applying theory to practice in the real world, you’ll learn how to maximise equestrian athletic performance, aiding the selection of performance horses and extending successful careers.

You’ll benefit from world-class technologies including well-renowned equine therapy and rider performance centres that are leading the way in related research.

Alongside this, you’ll be encouraged to attend academic and industry conferences and engage with communities of practice to enhance your learning and professional network, including those hosted at Hartpury.

Our outstanding competition facilities host over 100 events each year, many at international level, attracting leading equestrian athletes from across the world. We’re home to over 230 horses and riders in our livery centre, many training to be equestrian athletes as part of our Equine Academy.

This master’s-level qualification is a recognised qualification in its own right, but on successful completion, you’ll also have the option to progress onto our Postgraduate Diploma or MSc in Equine Science, where you’ll be able to select from a diverse range of equestrian performance modules to suit your interests and career goals.
