Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences: Race Track Industry Emphasis

University of Arizona

The Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences with a Race Track Industry emphasis is the only program of its kind centered on the racing industry. Students pick from two paths of study: one that prepares them for race track management, regulation or pari-mutuel racing organizations and the other that focuses on careers in racing and breeding. Students not only learn science and business concepts, but they are immersed in the diverse day-to-day operations of the racing industry through projects in the classroom and hands-on opportunities in the field.
