'In the equine industry a
tertiary qualification sets
you apart and gives a
greater knowledge of
business management
and practical aspects
of horses.  I enjoy the
social life and mixing with
like-minded people who
are as keen as I am to work
in the horse industry'

'I enjoy being with horses
and cattle but I also enjoy
crunching numbers and the
financial side of business
so the course has a perfect
balance of both interests.
Everyone at Marcus is so
close; whether you're a
First Year or a Third Year
or even a lecturer,
everyone is approachable
and easy to get along
with'

more one-on-one time
