Computer science departments in colleges and universities are always involved in curriculum reviews to insure their students receive an up-to-date education. In particular, the introductory or first course in computer science has undergone significant changes over the past years. This article concerns itself with the metamorphosis of the introductory course and addresses the possibilities of what the future first course in the discipline might be like.

Abstract Equine teaching programs in Animal Science Departments throughout the Midwest region land grant institutions have greatly expanded over the past 20 years. However, private schools with equine programs focused on large equitation programs have shown a reduction in recent years. Most indicated cost and reduced student numbers as factors to the decline. In evaluation of 12 land-grant institutions in the Midwest Animal Science region, 100% offer one or more equine Animal Science courses with a range of 1 to 16 different equine focused courses. Nearly all schools offer a combination of lecture and “hands-on” courses. Lecture courses focused on management, nutrition, evaluation, etc. were offed at all 12 institutions with most offering between 2 to 4 equine lecture type courses. Enrollments in these courses range between 10 – 50 students or more. However, highly popular hands on courses covering training, equitation, and handling have lower enrollment limits (10-15), lab fees, and schools offer between one to 6 different courses. Makeup of students enrolling in all courses is highly diverse from students with extensive prior horse skills and experience, to those with minimal experience. Furthermore, all of the institutions evaluated used the equine courses within their Animal Science major and three offered an Equine Option within Animal Science. However, this may be reflective of the structure of each Animal Science Department. Equine courses tend to be highly popular and attract students from various majors across intuitions. Offering courses to serve and attract this diverse student population is a challenge to departments, especially with the increased cost of maintaining herds for highly popular hands on courses. However, departments must strive to find a balance between lecture/distance and hands-on courses to provide students the educational experience exposing them to the equine industry and future careers.

The Future

A primary veterinary aim is to help ill and suffering non-human animals. But veterinary science is essential in protecting the health, growth, function, resilience, and well-being of all species, ecosystems, economies, societies, and the environment. It can repair damage done by diseases and human activity. It can tackle old and new diseases as they appear, and prevent some from happening at all. The ‘Epilogue’ concludes that the future for veterinary science is bright. Increasingly, veterinary science will inform and integrate with other areas of scientific research. As well as human medicine and ecology, it will combine with animal science, agronomics, nutritional science, business science, economics, sociology, anthropology, meteorology, and climatology.
