Faculty of Veterinary Medicine
Support lasting, positive change to the interplay of the health of animals, people and the environment
Together, we will prepare the next generation of veterinary leaders
The interplay of the health of animals, people and the environment is now recognized as a key component in the protection of overall health.
We are a relatively new and already successful faculty. For more than 10 years, the University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (UCVM) has worked to support a shortage of veterinarians serving rural Alberta. Our research, graduate education and clinical training programs advance animal and human health — where innovation meets community.
As an internationally recognized provider of high-quality veterinary education, we are an acknowledged leader in comparative biomedical, veterinary and population health research.
Conducting research that addresses issues of importance to our animal industries at the interface of animal and human health, we are creating a new generation of veterinarians.
