BSc Agricultural and Livestock Science

At Nottingham we take an applied approach. You'll build your science, business and practical knowledge throughout the course. You will learn how to use the science of agriculture to sustainably tackle global challenges, such as how to feed a growing population.

You'll study the production, nutrition, reproduction and management of commercial livestock within animal-based agricultural systems.

Practical sessions at the University Farm include animal handling sessions with different livestock species. Visits to local livestock farms help you to develop your understanding within a real-life context.
