About Bsc (hons) Veterinary Bioscience in Harper Adams University

If you are interested in preventing diseases and improving the health and welfare of animals based on a strong understanding of the scientific principles behind them then this is the course for you. 

The grounding provided in both science and applied animal studies also opens up opportunities in many areas of research. It is important to realise that by studying this course you will not qualify as a vet (i.e. you can’t diagnose and treat animals) but there are opportunities to work alongside vets and other scientists in the veterinary pharmaceutical companies that produce animal health products as well as in the animal nutrition or biotechnology industries.

Some graduates have gone on to study at veterinary school to eventually qualify as a veterinary surgeon.
