Course summary
This is an excellent pathway to professional and graduate school. This program fully prepares students for admission to schools of veterinary medicine where they would work toward the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, or for admission to their medical schools for the Doctor of Medicine (MD), the Doctor of Dentistry (DDS), or others. Students would also be fully qualified to enter graduate school to work toward an advanced degree, especially if they are interested in a research career in one of the biomedical or related areas. If students decide after graduation from college that they will not go on to veterinary school (at least not immediately), their employment chances are very good to work as a lab animal facilities manager, biomedical research technician or laboratory animal science technician, among other professions.
