Undergraduate programmes

The BVM&S degree is widely and internationally accredited, allowing graduates to practise all over the world once qualified.

We offer a 5 year degree for students with high school qualifications, and a 4 year Graduate Entry Programme for students with a relevant degree. Both pathways lead to a BVM&S.

Our programmes will provide you with an exceptional learning experience and qualify you to practise around the world.
