When recent graduates, their employers, and alumni identified the need for increased surgical experience for new veterinarians, the college responded with a curriculum update that introduces hands-on lessons in clinical and surgical skills in the first week of year 1.
The Class of 2027 is the first class trained from start to finish under this new curriculum model. Despite starting their first rotations 6 months earlier than previous classes, these students were well prepared according to anecdotal evidence from faculty. @AVMAJAVMA
