Veterinary Medicine and Surgery including a Gateway Year, BVMBVS

The veterinary gateway year is designed to enhance access to veterinary medicine by providing foundational knowledge in animal biology, chemistry, animal behaviour, and care. Through integrated modules, students explore how these disciplines interconnect, equipping them with essential skills for progression. Additionally, the program fosters an understanding of relevant industries, the societal role of animals, and practical animal handling techniques.Upon successful completion of the gateway year, students will automatically advance to the five-year veterinary medicine and surgery course. This pathway includes studying core sciences such as cell structure, biochemistry, health and disease, and chemistry topics like compounds, reactions, atomic structures, and bonding, all within five dedicated modules.
