County Kildare and the surrounding areas are at the heart of Ireland's multi-million-euro thoroughbred racing and breeding industry, and home to both Horse Racing Ireland and Horse Sport Ireland, the government agencies set up to promote thoroughbred racing and equestrian sport respectively.

As a student at NUI Maynooth, you will gain an insight into key areas of the equine industry, including racecourse and equine event management, stud farm business management and the equine leisure and tourism sector. The equine aspects of the course are applied in nature , and modules have been developed in conjunction with equine industry experts.
