Overview
We offer two undergraduate programmes, depending on your academic background.
The undergraduate Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery (BVM&S) programme is our main route into veterinary medicine.
Five-Year Programme
The standard five-year programme is suitable for school leavers or graduates of unrelated disciplines.
Graduate Entry Programme
We also offer a Graduate Entry Programme for anyone with a relevant first degree. This lets you qualify as a veterinary surgeon after four years of study.
The Research Track
The School is committed to a dedicated programme in the curriculum in which undergraduates get involved directly in research; we call this the Research Track. This programme aims to encourage undergraduates to identify and develop career paths that are alternative to general practice. Students can choose to engage at various stages of their undergraduate studies - follow the below link to look at the options and how these fit in with the BVM&S programme.
