... United Kingdom
... Hartpury University

Course Overview

If you want to develop business skills and pursue your equine passion while gaining real-world commercial experience, then this is the ideal course for you. You’ll be able to tailor your studies to suit your individual career goals and apply your skills practically through industry work placements.

The foundation year entry provides an alternative route into the degree-level study. It’s ideal for those who need to gain subject-specific knowledge and skills in order to progress with the full BA (Hons) qualification.

Compulsory modules will equip you with the skills to succeed in a commercial equine environment, covering core business subjects including finance, management, and marketing. A comprehensive range of optional modules will allow you to apply your acquired knowledge and skills to the areas of the equine industry you’re most passionate about.

You could focus on horse performance, and equine nutrition or take an active role in the planning and organization of successful events and competitions. Alternatively, you might choose to delve deeper into the 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 centers.

If you’re interested in studying abroad, you’ll have the opportunity to study for a semester of your degree at an overseas institution. You’ll also have the opportunity to complete an industry-recognized Chartered Institute of Marketing qualification to enhance your learning.
