We understand the difficulties many people face with full-time study and have joined forces with the University of London Worldwide, to offer study by distance learning.

The offering includes an MSc, Postgraduate Diploma, Postgraduate Certificate and Individual Modules in Livestock Health and Production.

Developed by academic experts at The Royal Veterinary College, studies are aimed primarily at veterinarians, animal health specialists and livestock farmers, however, optional modules make our studies suitable for people from a range of professional backgrounds.

The programme addresses contemporary issues of livestock production and has a worldwide relevance.  

Our graduates find that the international recognition and prestige of their degree opens doors and creates opportunities in their careers.

The course aims to provide you with:

• Knowledge on agents of animal diseases and how animals respond to them
• Advanced knowledge in animal nutrition, breeding and management to optimise animal health and production
• Farming systems approach to animal production and an understanding of how to appraise and monitor livestock production systems through development and execution

Providing distance learning courses, as part of the University of London International Programmes, is a challenging but very rewarding role. We have students from all over the world and our team works very hard to ensure that we offer them programs that are of an academically high standard and relevant to the contemporary needs of livestock farming and veterinary medicine. It’s a wonderfully rewarding experience to see our students successfully completing their courses and graduating.
