Horse Science

Clinton, Muscatine & Scott Community College

Program Description
Horse Science is a cooperative program between Eastern Iowa Community College District and Black Hawk College. Both an AAS degree and a certificate award are available through this program.

All courses are offered in a classroom setting* and are held at Black Hawk College located in Kewanee, IL. Students also participate in supervised on-the-job experience. The Equestrian Science program prepares students for employment in occupations relating to the raising, breeding and management of horses. At completion of the curriculum, students are awarded an A.A.S.

Students enroll in the Horse Science courses through their home college (CCC, MCC, or SCC) to take advantage of our in-state tuition rates. An additional lab fee of $875 for the first fall semester of the program covers the cost of grain, hay, bedding and use of facility for the horse used by the student in their riding course.
