Technicians form an important link between animals and the veterinarian.
Under the supervision of a veterinarian, they work in the laboratory, pharmacy, radiology, and surgical areas, and also perform patient reception and client education duties. Hands-on experience in the laboratories is stressed. The College farm gives students excellent exposure to dairy and beef cattle, sheep, chickens, and horses, and the newly-remodeled facility on the main campus provides a modern setting for experience with dogs, cats, mice, rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. The College strongly recommends that VT students receive human prophylactic rabies vaccine, which is available through the College in the Fall Semester. Vaccination is at the students' expense.
