Course summary
Throughout the course you will develop a thorough knowledge of the fundamental concepts of business management and students will be provided with the opportunity to study elective subjects in other disciplines, such as animal science, agriculture, horse business, rural surveying and land management. The delivery of the course includes the advantage of using case studies, which are often accompanied by site visits, giving you a hands-on feel for the land-based industries. By the end of the course the students will be equipped with the necessary skills to develop a career as a manager in the agri-food and land-based industries, or for self employment.
