You will build high-level expertise in the nursing care of animals of all kinds - from cats, dogs and horses to farm animals, wildlife and exotic pets. Gain hands-on animal and clinical experience through work placements providing you with opportunities to learn and experience the diversity of veterinary nursing and technology practice. Build an invaluable community of peers as you collaborate with animal and veterinary scientists, animal behaviourists and veterinarians. Study the complete spectrum of animal health, including pathology, pain management, animal nutrition, dentistry and pharmacology. Gain knowledge and training in the use of veterinary anaesthetic, radiography and dental equipment. Explore animal diseases, including those threatening humans, and the concept of One Health.
