Alternatively, you might choose to delve deeper into business through accounting and commercial decision-making, or explore the vibrant equine sport and hospitality sector.
Whatever route you choose, you’ll be able to apply the key principles of successful business on a campus brimming with commercial opportunities. Alongside your studies you’ll have the opportunity to experience a behind-the-scenes taste of equine business. Students gain experience at our regular international and national equine competitions and events, as well as in our commercial equine therapy and rider performance centres.
If you’re interested in studying abroad, you’ll have the opportunity to study a semester of your degree at an overseas institution. You’ll also have the opportunity to complete an industry-recognised Chartered Institute of Marketing qualification to enhance your learning.
