VETERINARY PUBLIC HEALTH
& EPIDEMIOLOGY (VPHE)
The Veterinary Public Health & Epidemiology Program serves society through excellence in research, learning, and outreach, focusing on using basic and applied methods to address problems at the interface of animal and human health.
Our expanding Veterinary Public Health & Epidemiology (VPHE) Program consists of several faculty members. Additional participating faculty members belong to interdepartmental programs, such as Toxicology, Food Science & Technology, Genetics, Reproduction, and Neuroscience.
Faculty and graduate students in the program are conducting research and receiving training that spans the spectrum of acute and chronic diseases of importance to domestic animal, wild animal, and human populations.
We train graduate students at the master’s and doctoral levels, and students working towards a master’s degree and a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree concurrently.
