UT Martin's veterinary science option is designed for students who wish to receive a bachelor's degree in animal science and meet the requirements for entrance into many professional schools, specifically, The University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine.
Unlike other veterinary pre-professional programs that focus on a single specialty, our veterinary science concentration will prepare you to work with a wide variety of animal patients—everything from livestock to exotic pets. Our comprehensive curriculum is just one of the reasons why graduates of this program have such a high rate of acceptance to veterinary school.
