Animal welfare is a global issue and becoming increasingly important in terms of food production, sustainability, and meeting societal expectations about animal care, whether they be used for food, for sport or entertainment, or as companions. Animal welfare is relevant to food policy, climate change, wildlife conservation and sustainability.
This course will equip you with an understanding of the issues surrounding the welfare of a wide range of animals, and the knowledge and skills required to develop a career in research, animal management, animal policy or a role in the charitable and non-governmental organisations sector.
