Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM)
The Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) gives you the experience and flexibility to exceed in your choice of veterinary career. Whether you want to be a small or large animal veterinarian, an animal welfare supervisor in the agricultural industries, an equine health professional, a zoo veterinarian or a government specialist monitoring wildlife health, you’ll build intensive and practical skills from day one.
The DVM is a full-time, four-year program taught at both Parkville and Werribee campuses. Your fourth year is lecture-free, allowing you to participate in clinical and practical placements in different locations. This includes rural and regional areas, as well as interstate and overseas.
