This Foundation Degree in Animal Management is designed and mapped to allow you to progress to higher education qualifications at level 6 and above. Over half a million new jobs will be required in the animal care sector - would you like to prepare to get one of them? Are you inspired to become the next David Attenborough presenting wildlife documentaries? Perhaps you dream of discovering new species of exotic animal within tropical rainforests? Do you yearn to work in a zoo, to rescue animals in need or perhaps help treat injured animals within a veterinary practice? Whatever your career aspirations, if it involves working with animals, then the Foundation Degree in Animal Management at the Grimsby Institute will provide the best stepping stone to success. You will benefit from learning within small groups whilst being supported by industry expert tutors throughout.

A variety of assessment methods will be used to enable an inclusive opportunity for achievement within a diverse cohort of learners. Assessment opportunities will include traditional methods such as essays, reports, examinations and presentations. The programme will also provide an opportunity for non-traditional assessment methods to be used which will encourage wider skills (such as the use of technology) acquisition in the learning environment. Such innovative methods of assessment will include for example the development of websites and eBooks to present assessment evidence. The programme will provide an opportunity for direct participation in practical animal management tasks. All tasks will be directly mapped into practical specific modules where the curriculum will support the application of skills and knowledge in professional industry environments. Learners will further gain opportunities to exercise their practical and professional competencies through engagement in work based placements.
