Animal Science
This program offers courses designed for students in the Agriculture Business, Veterinary Technology, and proposed Equine Science programs.
Cosumnes River College (CRC) is in the early stages of developing an Equine Science program and degree to offer as early as Fall 2008. The goal is to develop a series of equine-based courses that allow a student several options including attainment of an equinebased associate’s degree, transfer to a four year university in Animal Science or Equine Science and participation in specialized courses designed to serve the equine enthusiast. To better assess potential student interest, CRC asks that you consider providing your name and contact information through the CRC website at: www.crc.losrios.edu/horses so that we may contact you when these courses become available.
