Wellness and Sterilization Clinics Abroad

This course aims to provide students an opportunity to build clinical skills in settings abroad.

Students will participate in sterilization surgery procedures with supervision and instruction of veterinarians. Participants will also have opportunities to learn about local cultures and veterinary issues in the areas visited.
