Equine Science (top-up)

The aim of the BSc (Hons) Equine Science, Management and Training is to provide a progression opportunity for students who have completed a Level 5 qualification in a related discipline. The programme aims to integrate academic and work-based learning and to equip students with the skills and knowledge relevant to their chosen career. It offers a choice of two pathways; Biomechanics and Performance or Riding and Coaching.

The programme is centred on employability and the research, training and professional development modules are all designed to encourage people to refine their practice for their future careers.

This course is regulated by OfS and the qualification is awarded by the University of Derby. It can be completed full time over one year or part time over two years. The course offers both riding and non-riding options.

All students have access to the UDO online platform, the Derby College Group Learning Resources Centre, the University of Derby library, and the College’s Moodle pages.

The programme will run with a minimum of 5 students.
