Veterinary Science
A veterinary science degree provides you with a wide choice of career opportunities throughout the global market, both in veterinary and non-veterinary fields.
Why study Veterinary Science at Bristol? Bristol is a world-class university in a creative, dynamic city that offers an outstanding student experience. You will combine this city experience with time in the rural setting of the Langford campus, where you will be taught in modern clinical facilities. These include new small-animal and equine hospitals and a recently refurbished dairy farm. The veterinary school community at Bristol has a friendly and supportive atmosphere.
Bristol’s training strengths include farm animal science, animal welfare and veterinary public health reflecting the importance of vets to the Global and One Health agendas.
Because they have studied the underpinning science, Bristol graduates are adept as problem-solvers, innovators and entrepreneurs. Up to 20 per cent of Bristol veterinary students take the opportunity to intercalate into another science course between years three and four.
Veterinary science graduates are well prepared for a variety of careers in the global veterinary market. Most graduates are employed in UK general practice, but many undergo further specialist veterinary training, have careers in academia or work overseas. Veterinary scientists are also employed in the biomedical research industry and there are job opportunities in government agencies, the Royal Army Veterinary Corps and animal charities.
Accreditation
It is a requirement of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons that all UK veterinary students undertake 38 weeks of extramural studies on farms and in veterinary establishments. Bristol has a network of foster placements to help you find the experiences you need.
