“The equine centre has great facilities and a wide range of horses. The lecturers were all very friendly and knowledgeable with experience working in the equine sector.”
“My course highlight was the field trips – not only did these provide amazing days out, but also allowed us to practice observing and recording animal behaviours with the theory we learned from lectures in Evidence-Based Husbandry.”
“A massive advantage of Sparsholt is the small class sizes, which allow students to get to know their classmates and lecturers really well, helping academic and personal progression.”
“I know that Sparsholt helped to teach me all the skills I’ll need once I’m qualified and supported me when I needed it. Being a Sparsholt graduate will open doors for me in the industry and help me to achieve my goals.”
“The most enjoyable part of the course for me has been the practicals and placements. Placements have given me the opportunity to travel to New Zealand and make many contacts within the industry.”
“The lecturers are passionate about what they teach and will always be willing to offer a helping hand – I would not have been able to get through my degree without them.”
“The outstanding facilities and small lecture sizes really appealed to me and the practical structure as well as the 1:1 support from tutors allowed me to progress more effectively with my study through my undergraduate course and now into the MSc.”
“I’m really excited to be in the next generation of young farmers especially coming from Sparsholt because of all the facilities and technology we have here like the AI facilities, the milking parlour and the tractors with GPS.”
“Sparsholt has provided with me with all the theoretical knowledge and practical skills that I will need to find a job, or to continue my learning. They have made me feel incredibly confident in my abilities as a future ecologist.”
“Because of my time at Sparsholt I am able to pursue my passion and my dream. I am forever thankful.”
“The three year Wildlife Ecology and Conservation course was quite an emotional roller-coaster.”
“Being a student at Sparsholt was such a great experience and if I could go back and do it all again I would in a heartbeat.”
“The lecturing staff are really phenomenal.”
“Being a UCS student has not only allowed me to achieve my ambitions, but also inspired me to set new goals for myself in the process.”
“On visiting Sparsholt i fell in love with the campus and facilities offered.”
“Sparsholt is truly an institution focused on securing successful career paths for its students and there are a world of opportunities out there internationally in aquaculture – just ask professionals throughout the industry where they studied!”
I’ve always been a Sparsholt student – I first completed my Diploma in Horse Management, then a BSc in Equine Science, before then switching it all up and going on to MSc Applied Zoo Biology.
“I would highly recommend Sparsholt to any students considering a career in the animal industry; you will receive all the help, advice and support required throughout.”
“Thanks to the small class sizes and continued support and encouragement from the staff at Sparsholt, it was easy to apply for a UCS degree after finishing my access course.”
