BSc (Hons) Animal Science (Top Up) Bedford College

Animal Science (top-up) offers those with existing qualifications in Animal Science, Animal Management or related subjects the opportunity to develop their range of knowledge and skills and enhance their career prospects by graduating with an Honours’ degree.

You may apply for this one-year BSc top-up if you already hold or are studying a Foundation degree in a relevant subject or you are transferring from another BSc course. Alternatively, applicants may take the Foundation degree in Animal Management taught at our partner, Bedford College, and then transfer to this course.

The course enables you to develop your practical skills in our well-equipped laboratories while your studies give you a deeper engagement with subjects including animal physiology; disease management; and conservation management.

We will consider you as an individual and take into account all elements of your application, not just your qualifications. We are looking for breadth and depth in your current studies and enthusiasm for the subject you wish to study.
