This programme provides a comprehensive practical and theoretical understanding of animal behaviour. Science based units studied in the first year give students the foundation upon which to build skills required to recognise and evaluate behaviour in both domestic and wild animals. Business practice and administration modules ensure the skills essential for post holders of senior positions within industry are gained. Assessment is based on assignments, seminars, practicals, presentations, case studies, workshops and examinations.

Graduates are equipped with an understanding of companion and wild animal behaviour which can be applied to both domestic and commercial environments.
