Career Services is here to provide support as you navigate the various elements of your career development process in the veterinary field.

You do not need to know your entire career plan at this stage, or even by the time that you graduate! Your path will likely take some twists and turns and that is okay. We encourage you to take your time and avail yourself of the many opportunities that come down the pipeline.
