Overview Veterinary Medicine at Cambridge Cambridge provides a unique intellectual and social environment in which to study to the highest level. The Department of Veterinary Medicine has an international reputation as a centre of clinical excellence in all the domestic species, and is performing world class veterinary and biomedical research. Succeeding as a veterinary surgeon requires many skills – scientific, practical, clinical, financial and social – and the Cambridge course is designed to develop these skills. A major strength of the Cambridge course is the extensive use of practical teaching. Our staff includes world leaders in their fields and our facilities offer state-of-the-art equipment (see Resources, below). Right from the start, Cambridge students receive intensive training in animal handling and practical clinical skills. In addition, Cambridge was the first veterinary school to introduce a hands-on lecture-free final year, in which students take full responsibility for cases under the watchful eye of senior clinicians. This allows you to develop your clinical, problem solving and client communication skills in a real clinical practice environment. The emphasis on small-group teaching in all six years, with experienced teachers supporting and guiding your progress, is also central to our philosophy of producing the highest calibre veterinary graduates.
