Equine Performance Science

About this course

Equine performance science applies the methods and knowledge of sport science to the horse. It is a discipline that sits at the intersection of biology, biomechanics, physiology, and sports coaching, asking how equine athletes can perform at their best, how training can be optimised, and how health and welfare interact with performance. The subject is relevant to competitive equestrian sport at every level as well as to the management of horses in breeding, leisure, and rehabilitation contexts. Anglia Ruskin University's three-year full-time programme in equine performance science gives you a rigorous grounding in the scientific principles underlying equine health and athletic performance alongside practical skills in working with horses. You will study equine anatomy and physiology, biomechanics of movement, training principles and conditioning, nutrition, veterinary science as it rela
