If you are interested in studying Animal Science but are not sure which Honours Option to select when you apply, please enter C305 on your UCAS form. This enables you to defer your choice of Option until Stage 2, when you choose to specialise in either Companion Animal Studies or Livestock Technology.

Stage 1 is common to all animal science students, during which you will develop knowledge and skills in the areas of animal health, behaviour, physiology, biochemistry, genetics and microbiology. There are optional modules to choose from in agriculture, evolution and biodiversity, as well as modules in information technology and practical techniques. You can also choose a European language or business/marketing modules to complement the science modules that form the core of this degree.

While most students planning to enter one of these fields select biology, chemistry, or psychology as a major, pre-medical, pre-dental, and pre-vet students may select any major. The University of Mary Washington has a pre-medical/pre-dental advisor and a pre-veterinary advisor to guide interested students through these curriculums. In addition to meeting with their assigned Academic Advisors, students with an interest in medical or dental school should meet with the Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental Advisor (Dr. Loesser-Casey, kloesser@umw.edu) early in the first semester to discuss the requirements for medical or dental school. Students with an interest in veterinary medicine should meet with the Pre-Veterinary Advisor (Dr. Lewis, llewis@umw.edu).

New students interested in entering one of these career fields should complete the following courses during their first semester: CHEM 111, BIOL 121, MATH 121, ENGL 101, and a Physical Education course or a General Education course. New students with AP, IB or transfer credit which substitutes for one or more of these first semester courses should confer with the pre-med or pre-vet advisor during the first week of classes if they have questions concerning alternative coursework.
