Undergraduate Certificate in Veterinary Sciences

The goals of the undergraduate Certificate in Veterinary Science are to enhance the knowledge of pre-veterinary medical students in preparation for application to a professional DVM program and to enrich the knowledge of veterinary technicians who have previously graduated with an associate degree in veterinary technology.  The Certificate in Veterinary Science is not a professional program in veterinary medicine and does NOT supplant professional training in veterinary medicine nor veterinary technology.

This 16 cr hr certificate program has been developed to better prepare pre-veterinary medical students in areas of biomedical and veterinary terminology, animal handling, sanitation, and welfare.  Courses can be used as electives to apply to a college of veterinary medicine.

Undergraduate Certificate in Biomedical Sciences

A recently published study of student success in veterinary colleges in North America and the Caribbean concluded that preparation in anatomy and physiology is often inadequate among pre-veterinary medical students.

The goal of this 16 cr hr certificate program is to better prepare pre-veterinary medical students or pre-professional students in allied medical fields for success in biomedical terminology, cell biology, anatomy, and physiology.
