HARTPURY OFFERS RACING DEGREES

TWO new degree courses on offer at Hartpury aim to “enable graduates to succeed in the global racing industry”.

The university centre believes its BA (Hons) in international horseracing business and its BSc (Hons) in racehorse performance and rehabilitation will provide the first-hand experience employers want.

“The performance and rehabilitation course will combine this with strong practical knowledge, while the business students will take a closer look at the governance and structure of international racing,” a Hartpury spokesman said.

Students will also work in Hartpury’s equestrian centre, which features equine therapy facilities, riding simulators and a livery yard.
