Description

 
 

Program

The University of Glasgow School of Veterinary Medicine (UoG) has established FEEPASS (Facilitated Early Entry Program for Animal Science Students) between the Department of Animal Sciences and the UoG School of Veterinary Medicine. After three years of study at The Ohio State University (OSU), Animal Sciences students accepted into this program will enroll in year 1 of the 5-year BVMS program at the UoG, while continuing as candidates for the B.S. degree at OSU. At the end of the Education Abroad period of study (i.e. year 1 at the UoG), students are eligible for completion of the B.S. degree through OSU. The intended learning outcomes for the year of study at the UoG include the integration of the structure and function of animal systems, foundational knowledge of health disease, and application of scientific principles to real world scenarios.

Generally, students should follow the Animal Sciences major Biosciences specialization 3-year curriculum plan. Dr. Kelly George is the formal contact regarding preparation to be eligible for this program.
