Equine Science<\/h1>\n

Do You Want to Improve the Welfare of Horses and Understand their Functions and Role in Society?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Equine Science majors have the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of horses in the business, recreational, and production aspects of the horse industry. Currently, CSU has the most-comprehensive equine program in the United States with major efforts in research, teaching, and public service. In the major, you\u2019ll take foundation courses in the areas of equine reproduction, genetics, and nutrition and disease management, as well as over 20 hands-on courses that cover all aspects of the industry. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Equine Science program has students working with faculty that are recognized internationally for pioneering research in equine reproduction, lameness, nutrition and orthopedics.<\/span><\/p>\n
