 VETERINARY SCIENCE



A natural compassion for animals and an interest in science is what leads most veterinarians into their field. Learn the role a veterinarian plays in practicing animal and public health while participating in many hands-on activities. These activities will help you learn about the different equipment used by veterinarians, diseases, health problems, and career opportunities as a veterinarian or volunteer. You do not have to own an animal to be in this project.

Here's What You Can Learn . . . .

  • Recognize major breeds of different species of animals
  • Identify basic needs of animals Investigate the different roles of animals
  • Describe different stages of an animals’ life
  • Discover body systems and organs
  • Investigate animal behavior
  • Explore nutrient groups and their function
  • Learn to calculate medical dosages
  • Explore the roles of a vet and the tools they use

 VETERINARY CLINICAL MEDICINE


Expertise in the Department of Veterinary Clinical Medicine spans a wide range of clinical specialties. Most faculty spend a significant proportion of their time delivering or supervising the care of patients in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This clinical service integrates the training and education of residents, interns, and veterinary students who are engaged with patient care

In addition to teaching as part of patient care delivery, departmental faculty teach and lecture in core courses and electives in the veterinary degree program, in graduate student seminars, and in the college’s online Master of Veterinary Science program. Most also engage in continuing education for veterinary professionals through publications in practice-oriented journals, presentations at professional meetings, or delivery of online continuing education modules. Many take on leadership roles nationally or internationally in the professional associations devoted to their area of specialty.

Research is very often focused on advancing the standards of patient care, addressing problems that arise in the patient population that they see. Innovations developed for human patients are frequently adapted to animal patients. For example, a real-time imaging device that could allow oncologic surgeons to ensure that they have excised all of a tumor without having to wait for a pathologist’s report is being borrowed from breast cancer surgery and applied to canine cancers.

Medical advances sometimes originate in veterinary medicine and move to human medicine: chemotherapeutic approaches to osteosarcoma that have proven effective in naturally occurring cancers of dogs treated at our hospital are beginning trials in people with cancer.

Veterinary Clinical Medicine faculty frequently use clinical trials to answer specific questions about new therapies and drugs. Patients at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital may be eligible to enroll in a clinical trial that offers cutting-edge treatments at a reduced cost to the animal owner.

Faculty are dedicated not only to animal health and welfare, but to improvement of human and environmental well-being through improved understanding of the human-animal bond, food production systems, and ecosystem health.

UCT Vet Science Students Get A Paws-On Education In New Building



In most high schools it might be unusual to find a classroom of sophomores performing an ultrasound on a dog’s bladder, but Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical High School is not most high schools.

The finishing touches are just about done on the school’s new veterinary science building, but the first class of students to be enrolled in the program is already making use of everything the facility offers. The program was included as an exploratory class last year, when it was housed in an existing lab space in the main building.

Now a full-blown program with its own new building, the 14 veterinary science students are starting to get hands-on experience working with sick and injured pets.

Technical Programs Supervisor Nolan LeRoy said that earlier in the year, a student conducting an eye examination on a dog found a benign tumor that had previously gone unnoticed.

Elise McAllister, the classroom aide, brings her yellow Labrador retriever, named Revis, in so that the students can practice exams on him.

Ms. McAllister said that she trained him as a therapy dog when he was about a year old. Revis is definitely used to his routine and follows the direction of the students when they need him to be in any given place.

“He’s the best boy ever,” Ms. McAllister said.

Teacher and veterinarian Harry Ernst said other school staff members have also brought their pets in for the students to examine.

The new building contains two classroom spaces. It also provides exam, dental and surgical rooms. Each of the clinical rooms includes a large observation window so that students who are not taking part in a procedure can still watch what their peers are doing.

Among the students this year is Jacquelyn Stuart of Wareham, who said she plans to become a veterinary technician with a specialty in physical therapy. She said she has know that she wanted to work with animals since she was 8 years old, especially having grown up around a lot of animals.

Her classmate, Emily Mello of Bourne, said she wants to be a veterinarian at Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom before potentially opening up a clinic of her own.

“It’s so amazing and an honor,” Emily said. “To be the first class to be in veterinary is amazing.”

Both said that the course work is rigorous, but no more so than what they had expected it to be when they signed up for it.

“If you think you’re going to come in and play with dogs all day, you’re wrong,” Jacquelyn said after she and Emily had completed a demonstration of an endotracheal intubation on a surgical dummy named Jerry Seinfeld.

The program will not certify students to become veterinary technicians right out of high school, but Mr. LeRoy said that they will be earning hours toward that certification. Mr. LeRoy said students will be certified in animal CPR. They will also be Fear Free certified. Fear Free is initiative that aims to educate those who care for animals on how to reduce fear and anxiety in pets.
