Veterinary Medical Sciences Graduate Minor

Students interested in the graduate minor in Veterinary Medical Sciences should meet with the Program Director within the department of interest to design a Program of Study and fill out a Veterinary Medical Sciences Program of Study form, to be kept on file with the Program Director. Courses must be clearly delineated as to which hours count as major coursework and which as minor coursework.
