The animal industry is a booming and growing industry. Recent years have seen an increase in biotechnological development within animal production as well as an expansion in animal health industries
More than half a billion dollars is spent yearly on animal health sales and almost as much again on its research in the US alone. This increased reliance on biological and veterinary sciences together with biotechnology, has created the need for appropriately trained scientists. Our new BSc (Hons) in Bioveterinary Science has been developed to support that need. It has been designed to meet the needs of students and employers looking for practical skills and knowledge in the professions allied to the practice of veterinary medicine and to that of the animal industry in general, and builds on the existing expertise and reputation of the Department in this field.
