This vocational course develops a range of practical and knowledge based skills related to the animal management industry. The content of the programme has been specifically designed to be appropriate to the needs of the animal management industry. There is a strong emphasis on applying theoretical knowledge to practical situations using our excellent animal facilities. **What will I Study?** Year 1: Units introduce the student to farm health & behaviour, anatomy & physiology, animal nutrition, animal health, and how this relates to behaviour and management in relation to welfare. Year 2: Subjects develop on the first year becoming more applied, including Welfare and Legislation, Integrated Health Management, Laboratory & Veterinary Diagnostics Techniques, Wildlife Care and Rehabilitation Management. **Learning and Teaching Approach** This programme is delivered with a variety of learning and teaching approaches to include all students’ learning styles and preferences. For all modules, theory lectures are delivered that aim to deliver the core content and provide the underpinning knowledge. To complement the theory lectures, students have group seminars/practical sessions that are used to reinforce concepts delivered theoretically. The teaching methods focus on facilitating a student centred approach to enhance the independent learning that takes place outside of the classroom. Teaching will take place on the Bishop Burton campus. **What is the contact time?** Approximately 16 hours a week to include lectures, seminars, work experience, practical's and tutorials.
