Overview
The Bachelor of Veterinary Biology/ Bachelor of Veterinary Science (Honours) course aims to extend the BVetBiol/BVSc course to equip students with knowledge of a number of key research paradigms and the ability to design, conduct, and write up a manageable research project. Through a process of mentoring, the course aims to encourage and prepare graduates to be critical consumers of knowledge, to undertake evidence-based professional activities and, within their sphere of professional activity, to contribute to a developing knowledge base locally, nationally and globally.
