At Hartpury, our students have access to a variety of domestic and non-domestic species on-site. There aren’t many places that you’ll have access to invertebrates, reptiles, livestock and exotic species.
We have several different animal homes on campus which students can access:
Students also have access to the domestic species on our commercial farm and horses in our world-class equine facilities, including our Equine Therapy Centre.
Our Animal Science laboratories and Veterinary Nursing Centre have specialist equipment for teaching and research and are the hub for our students to learn more about anatomy and physiology, including dissections. The facilities in our labs include a thermal imager, new magnifiers and binocular and trinocular microscopes, dietcheck software, a veterinary haematology analyser, and microplate reader.
