The BSc Bioveterinary Sciences course is a unique blend of the biological sciences relating to animals, the way they work, their health, their diseases and their relationships with humans.
This course aims to equip you with the latest skills for a range of careers in veterinary science, as well as in STEM and non-STEM industries. You will be taught by a range of skilled scientists and clinicians with extensive experience of animal disease and research. We will cover virtually every aspect of animal biology, management and disease that is likely to interest you.
You will require ambition to succeed in the veterinary field and a desire to improve animal health and welfare. We demand high levels of motivation and, in return, promise a rich and rewarding experience during your time with us.
