The second term of year 3 is 8 weeks in duration. The clinical year starts immediately after this 8-week term.
|
| * Students must take either the large or small animal course, and may take both. |
| Year 4 |
The fourth year program allows veterinary students some flexibility to concentrate their interests in specific areas. The program begins immediately following the conclusion of Year III (approximately early March) and continues for 14 months.
Each course in the fourth year is taught as a 2 or 3 week block. Students take each course as a separate block. Students select clinical rotations with guidance from faculty advisors. A student may concentrate their attentions toward small or large animal rotations, or he or she may pursue a general, mixed-animal course of study.
Because the fourth-year program is continuous, some blocks may end or begin during holidays or semester breaks.
