The more than 22,000-square-foot VERO facility serves as a learning space for Texas A&M DVM program students, supplementing veterinary externship programs in rural Texas. Its multiple classrooms accommodate 30–50 students and can be used for outreach activities, including the training of livestock workers and continuing education for veterinarians.

“These new state-of-the-art facilities create a highway of education, research, and outreach activity from West Texas A&M University to the Texas A&M VMBS and back that supports animal health in this region. This partnership brings together the Texas A&M University System’s universities to extend their reach and address the large animal veterinary needs of Texas.” —Dr. Walter Wendler, President of WTAMU
