The inter-disciplinary study of human & animal interactions
The MA in Anthrozoology at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David is the first of its kind!
This modular programme will be of interest to anyone who would like to investigate the many and varied ways in which humans perceive, engage, compete and co-exist with non-human animals in a range of cultural contexts .
It will be especially relevant in terms of CPD for individuals who are involved with the care of non-human animals in a professional capacity (e.g. vets, veterinary nurses/technicians, animal trainers, dog wardens, zoo keepers, conservationists, charity workers etc.), as well as for students who have completed social science undergraduate degrees or who have a science background and would like to expand their research interests into the social sciences.
The Anthrozoology MA will be available either residentially in Lampeter or by way of blended (distance) learning.
