VTMED 6741
Wellness and Sterilization Clinics Abroad

Course information provided by the 2019-2020 Catalog.

This course aims to provide students an opportunity to build clinical skills in settings abroad. Working with local grassroots animal welfare organizations and pet owners in small communities, we will learn how to communicate with them to take medical histories and educate them on aspects of pet health and wellness, and learn more about the human/animal bond in other countries. Students will participate in sterilization surgery procedures with supervision and instruction of veterinarians. Participants will also have opportunities to learn about local cultures and veterinary issues in the areas visited.


Permission Note Enrollment preference given to: fourth- and third-year students; second- and first-year students as needed.
