The equine studies program at Wilson College provides a distinctive opportunity for students to pursue a professional career in the growing equine industry. Whether your professional goal is to manage an equine facility, be a riding instructor, train horses, or teach riders with disabilities, the equine studies program has a major or concentration to help you achieve your goals. The program provides students with opportunities to expand their practical knowledge and experience through traditional classroom learning, hands-on application of skills in the stables, mentored teaching opportunities, equitation (riding) classes in either English or western disciplines, and direct contact with horses at the on-campus equestrian center.
