Introduction:

The Department of Veterinary Science and Microbiology is in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

The department offers a program which prepares students for careers concerned with animal or human health and welfare, biological or biomedical sciences and biotechnology or related fields which require scientific-based academic preparation.

Students may also complete preprofessional courses required for application to professional schools of medicine, veterinary medicine, nursing, osteopathy, optometry, podiatry, physical or occupational therapy and dentistry while working towards completion of the major. Admission to these schools is not guaranteed and depends to a great extent upon the quality of the student's academic record and the participation of the schools in the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) professional student exchange program.

For more information contact the department office listed above.
