Professor Cathy Jackson, Executive Dean of the Faculty of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, said: “Our new veterinary school will be focussed on producing much needed industry ready graduates for our region, particularly as recent figures have highlighted a national shortage of vets and a sector heavily reliant on vets educated in the European Union."
Key features of the school include being taught by an expert team of veterinary and animal science lecturers with a wealth of clinical experience, a commitment to enhancing and promoting good animal welfare and research opportunities to cross collaborate with staff and students from veterinary and human health subjects.
