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.
