The Equine
Technology curriculum is designed to prepare students for
positions within the horse industry. The curriculum is
management oriented, preparing graduates for the widest range of
available equine jobs; areas of specialization may be pursued
during a summer internship and co-op program.
Farm management,
breeding, nutrition, selection/judging, and health are covered
in detail; training, teaching, and riding are also included.
Students are assigned a horse and practice day-to-day management
at the college's equine facility.
Martin Community
College is the only community college in North Carolina that
offers this program.
Students may pursue an Associates Degree, Diploma, and
Certificate. Students interested in furthering their education
may transfer their course work into the Bachelor of Arts in
Equine Studies at
Midway College in Lexington,
Kentucky. Students interested in transferring should consult
with their advisor, the college counselor, and Midway College as
they plan their course schedule.
