Why an RVC Masters/Diploma?
Recent outbreaks of Avian Influenza, Foot and Mouth disease, BSE and swine fever have highlighted the threat to human and animal health arising from infectious diseases.
Our unique Masters course is available through both full and part-time study as MSc and diploma. It addresses control issues in relation to emerging and endemic infectious disease, focusing on the biology, diagnosis, epidemiology, management and prevention of infectious disease across animal populations.
