The MS and the PhD program in Biomedical Sciences is college-wide and is administered by a committee of the Graduate Faculty and the Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies acting in conjunction with the departments. Both programs are open to veterinary graduates in all departments and to those with Bachelor's degrees. These sections offer large animal graduate programs and residency training in internal medicine, surgery, theriogenology, practitioner specialties, and pharmacy.
Internal medicine emphasizes equine medicine, food animal medicine, and neonatology.
Surgery emphasizes bovine male reconstructive surgery and orthopedic and upper respiratory surgery. Theriogenology comprises all areas of large animal reproduction, including dairy and beef herd health, with focus on male reproduction and in vitro fertilization. Anesthesia and intensive care programs are offered as are pharmacy programs with specialty training in veterinary clinical pharmacy and pharmacokinetics. Other areas of research interest are nutrition, metabolic diseases, bovine mastitis, cardiopulmonary disease, and thermography. Included among support facilities available to the student are hybridoma, electron microscopy, flow cytometry, cell culture, and computer laboratories.
