The study of conformation as it relates to soundness and performance. Students learn to recognize the components of good conformation as they relate to the athletic functions of the horse. Field trips highlight varying disciplines and how conformational changes make horses appropriate for differing activities. Students will also use the University herd to practice assessing conformation and its evaluation for performance types. Students will also learn how conformational faults impact long term soundness.
