Arboriculture and Forestry

The lecturers have widened my knowledge of different aspects of animal care due to their previous work backgrounds and have pushed me to achieve my full potential

I chose Sparsholt because of the unique campus to gain knowledge in looking after animals and providing them with the best welfare. Interacting with different animal species in practical lessons and learning about their natural environment and conservation efforts has been a real course highlight for me as an aspiring zookeeper and conservationist. 

The lecturers have widened my knowledge of different aspects of animal care due to their previous work backgrounds and have pushed me to achieve my full potential. Within practical and theory lessons and work experience I have learnt important husbandry skills which I will need when looking after animals in a zoo, and I have also enjoyed meeting others with a similar interest and becoming close friends
