Graduate Education
The School of Veterinary Medicine offers a rich educational environment for students pursing advanced graduate education. Our faculty engage with the UC Davis Office of Graduate Studies and a broad range of Graduate Groups to support students and veterinary graduates pursuing M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. UC Davis has organized more than half of its graduate programs as interdisciplinary graduate groups, which gives students the freedom to explore their interests across disciplines and colleges.
The school is proud to serve as the home base for four Graduate Programs, a Designated Emphasis, and a Veterinary Scientist Training Program where students may focus on human, animal and other research areas.
