HND Animal Care at the Elmwood campus is currently closed to new applications. The course may reopen during clearing, please check back during the summer. Applications are still being considered for the Aberdeen, Barony and Oatridge campuses. 

This HND Animal Care course will give you the knowledge and skills you need for supervisory or management roles in the animal care industry, or to set up a small business of your own.

Offering in-depth knowledge about the specialist care and welfare of a wide range of species, the course can take you directly into work, or act as a first step into other animal-related studies.
