World-class expertise leading the way to benefit the equine industry
Renowned for its innovative studies, Texas A&M strives to be at the forefront of discovery in equine sciences. Faculty in both the Department of Animal Science and Department of Large Animal and Clinical Sciences are committed to serving Texas and beyond through vital, basic, and applied research.
Through state-of-the-art facilities and internal & external collaborations, Texas A&M is developing new technologies and practices that are transforming the industry.
Institute Supported Research
Texas A&M AgriLife Research has funding available within the Institute for Equine Sciences to award eligible faculty to support/promote equine science research topics relative to supporting equine health, wellness, welfare, performance and the over vitality of the Texas, U.S., and global equine industry.
Subjects might include equine welfare, disease management, nutrition and metabolic physiology, reproductive physiology, growth and development, equine animal breeding and genetics, sports medicine and performance, equine behavior, training, and/or human animal bond, or other novel subjects supportive of the equine industry and its owners.
