VTEC 0132

This course is an off-campus externship delivered by the Atlantic Veterinary College (AVC). During these 3 weeks (or minimum 100 clinical hours) students are on duty with technical staff for approximately one-half of their time at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital (VTH). Evening and night shifts are a large part of the AVC Externship. Day shifts allow some opportunity for the student to choose specific areas of interest. In addition, there are structured learning exercises. There is a significant livestock and equine component to the AVC Externship. Students attend this externship in two or more sections. Attendance is required at all scheduled duty shifts and exercises.
