About Bioveterinary Science, BSc (Hons) - at Keele University

Can you envision yourself working in high-tech veterinary diagnostic labs, contributing to ground breaking animal science research or tackling challenges in public, animal or environmental health? Keele's Bioveterinary Science BSc is the perfect launchpad for exciting careers that let your love of animals and fascination with science thrive. Our programme focuses on animal health, disease and cutting-edge veterinary diagnostics, provides practical experience in state-of-the-art labs and work placement opportunities to gain real-world experience. Course overview If you're eager to learn more about animals and science, our Bioveterinary Science degree offers an exciting opportunity to build knowledge and skills in both fields.

You'll develop an understanding of core themes such as animal physiology, anatomy, biochemistry and molecular cell biology, and examine current bioveterinary challenges facing society and how scientific research is providing solutions. What communicable and non-communicable diseases affect major animal species? You'll seek to understand this question through examining wildlife, livestock, birds and pets. The public health implications of infectious diseases that pass from animals to humans and vice versa are studied, you'll explore animal nutrition, welfare and behaviour, and analyse how bioveterinary and animal health sciences can be applied to global challenges such as food security.

A main feature of our Bioveterinary Science BSc is our extensive laboratory programme utilising state-of-the-art facilities in our David Attenborough and Central Science Laboratories. You will gain hands-on experience performing routine veterinary tests and learn how theses are applied to screening, diagnosing and monitoring various diseases. Laboratory activities provide you with the scope to gain advanced skills in biochemical and molecular techniques, enhance your experiential study design abilities and directly apply the theoretical knowledge acquired throughout the programme. You'll also strengthen your transferable skills in communication and teamwork, sharpen your critical thinking by evaluating contemporary scientific literature, become confident in analysing data using computational and bioinformatic tools, and benefit from work placement opportunities.
