•The 2010 Merial NIH National Veterinary Scholars Symposium will be hosted by the University of Georgia, Aug 5-8, 2010

 

Merial Veterinary Scholars Program 2010

Through a supportive, mentored research experience in an established laboratory and through seminars and discussion groups on careers in science, it is hoped that veterinary students will gain an insight on career opportunities in biomedical research.

 

Veterinary students in their first or second year of veterinary school are encouraged to apply.  Programs are typically 10 to 12 weeks during the summer and held at veterinary schools throughout the U.S. and Canada.  To find out more information and how to apply, follow the link for the particular institution.

Students are eligible to apply to any of the institutions listed with an active Merial Veterinary Scholars Program, regardless of where you are currently enrolled.
