Overview

Veterinary Biosciences with Foundation Year is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Animal Science covers policy and regulation alongside the science, because most graduate roles sit where the two meet.
