Laboratory work fosters critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, exposing students to techniques, technology, and methodology.

Hands-on practicum allows our students to bridge the gap between theory and practice by applying what they have learned in the classroom to actual veterinary procedures. Through a cooperative effort between the student, faculty, and a private veterinary hospital, clinic, zoo, or biomedical research facility, students complete a minimum of 240 contact hours and develop skills in animal handling, administering medication, performing diagnostic tests, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n
