Equestrian

Established in 1958, the stables are located on State Route 73 and serve as the gateway to the Miami University Oxford campus. The equestrian center stables 50 horses and is home to a nationally recognized equestrian team that serves all three disciplines: Dressage, Hunt Seat, and Western.

Programs and Offerings

In addition to the equestrian team, each semester there are over 400 students that ride in a 2 credit hour class offered through the Kinesiology and Health department. The equestrian center also hosts events, lessons, and summer camps.

The nationally recognized Miami Equestrian Team (MUET) is a competitive club team of 100 riders at all levels.
