Hey!
Welcome to the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine.
There's a lot of amazing things here so why don't we take a look around?
This is our large animal hospital.
Here, we see things from pigs, sheep, champion equine athletes, and even yaks.
Being that we're a full-scale teaching hospital, students are involved with patients and clients
on a daily basis.
This is one of our exam rooms.
Students will come in, greet the clients,
take a history, and then they'll work on the
case the entire time with one of the clinicians.
So this is one of the main arteries of our
small animal clinic.
And here you'll find some treatment areas, our emergency area, wards, the ICU, exam rooms,
and our surgery suites.
This is our physical rehabilitation center,
which is part of our integrative medicine service.
Here, we offer acupuncture, chiropractic medicine, and physical therapy.
This is one of our anatomy labs. We work with board-certified pathologists on all of our dissections.
This is the clinical skills lab, where students can use state-of-the-art models to learn how
to draw blood, or to suture.
What I love about this place is that it's
open 24/7, so you can come in our your schedule
to practice any skills that you might need.
This right here is one of our main lecture
halls.
This is where first and second-year students will have their sit-down lectures before they
get started on the hands-on learning.
Welcome to UC Davis nutrition support service.
This service has trained more board-certified nutritionists than any other program in the world.
They assist the other clinicians by designing specialized diets for their patients.
They are known for their creative approach to complex cases and their input is sought worldwide.
We have the highest research budget in the country, and the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine
has made astonishing breakthroughs
in both animal and human health.
It's not uncommon for a veterinary student to spend their summer or part of their school
year working alongside a top researcher in finding new ways to diagnose and prevent disease.
So one of the greatest things about the UC Davis vet school is that students are allowed
to bring their pets to school, so dogs like
Hopper right here are allowed to hang out
while their owners are in class.
This is the lobby of Valley Hall which is
centrally located between a lot of our different
lecture halls, and it's a place where students like to hang out and study in between their
classes.
This is the student services and administration center, and here is our donor wall that shows
all the people and organizations that have
contributed toward student scholarships and fellowships.
As one of the recipients of such scholarships, I can tell you it's so encouraging to have
these resources contributing to the pursuit of our passions and our dreams.
We hope you enjoyed this tour of our school.
If you have any more questions, please visit our website and we look forward to seeing you soon!
