Overview

These graduate programs provide advanced educational opportunities for students in a broad range of biomedical and veterinary sciences. A non-thesis master’s option in VBMS is also offered with emphasis in food animal production medicine (i.e. dairy, beef, swine, poultry, and aquaculture). The goal of the VBMS and ENVT programs is to provide training for the next generation of scientists and educators who will be leaders in biomedical and veterinary research and education. Faculty in CVM’s Department of Comparative Biomedical Sciences, Department of Clinical Sciences, and Department of Pathobiology & Population Medicine lead each student’s graduate education. Involvement in ongoing research projects conducted by the faculty is an important part of each degree program. Students in the VMS program specialize in disciplines such as applied clinical research, biocomputing, epidemiology, health disparities, infectious diseases, toxicology, and food safety.

Requirements

To be admitted to the Veterinary Medical Sciences Graduate Program the applicant must either hold a D.V.M. degree from a recognized college of veterinary medicine or have at least a bachelor’s degree from a fully recognized four-year institution of higher learning. The scholastic record for all undergraduate, graduate, and professional school coursework will be reviewed and should exceed a minimum GPA of 3.00 for undergraduate work; GPA of 3.00 for graduate work; GPA of 2.75 for the four years of the veterinary curriculum or 2.75 for the last two years of the veterinary curriculum. Also required are three reference letters, a minimum TOEFL score of 550 PBT (79 iBT) or IELTS score of 6.5 for international students from countries whose primarily language is not English, and if a Graduate Record Examination (GRE) score is available, those scores will be considered.
