Description including Unit Aims

This unit develops students' appreciation of the frontiers of research in equine exercise science. Selected aspects of exercise physiology and biomechanics will be covered in depth in seminars, and students are free to select other modules in ANAT30100 to build a programme around their own interests. Each student completes a research project in an area of equine or anatomical science (not limited to exercise science). Training is given in methodology and techniques of scientific research.
