Department of Veterinary Medicine
Department of Veterinary
The educational goal of the College of Veterinary Medicine is to teach knowledge and techniques in order to produce highly-trained veterinarians, for service in advanced basic medical sciences, clinics, and public health areas.
The College of Veterinary Medicine was originally created as a department in the College of Agriculture in 1952, but was reformed into an independent college in 1988. The college offers special programs for students interested in becoming professional veterinarians. It offers lectures on the structures and functions of animal bodies, the biology of diseases, and applied veterinary medicine. In 1997, the 6-year educational system in the College of Veterinary Medicine was introduced. The students are required to complete the 2 year pre-veterinary medical program and the 4 year veterinary medical program. They are required to take at least 160 credit hours for a bachelor's degree: 122 in their major and related courses and 48 in general studies courses.
In 1995, the college established an academic exchange agreement with Murdoch University in Australia. Since then, the college has built a similar relationship with Universidad Austral de Chile (Chile), and Nippon Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science (Japan) and has had professor and student exchange programs and common research projects with them.
