Academics

Faculty and staff in the department participate in all four years of the professional curriculum, although most interactions with students occur in the third and fourth years. The department offers a one-year internship program for the newly graduated veterinarians, and three-year residency programs in several clinical disciplines for veterinarians seeking advanced training and board certification. Our faculty and staff frequently contribute to continuing education programs offered by the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences.
