Course Overview

Offered by University of Stirling, the MSc Aquatic Veterinary Studies provides a comprehensive postgraduate education in agriculture and food science. Based in Stirling, Scotland, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time structure. Food from aquatic systems is essential for much of the worldโ€™s population. However, with wild catches of seafood declining in many places, aquaculture is playing an increasing role as an alternative source of high-quality, nutritious food - and as an employer. Controlling disease is important to the ongoing success of this industry. A minimum ielts score of 6.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 80% student satisfaction rating, a 85% continuation rate, and 75% of graduates in employment or further study.
