About Program
Designed with pre-veterinary students in mind, our courses are small, hands-on, and taught by veterinarians (DVM) and marine science instructors. Spanning the course of three months with 4-week modules in South Africa, Thailand and Ecuador, students will be able to develop their veterinary skills with companion animals, elephants, cheetahs, marine life and various animals of the Amazon rainforest! From the temples of Thailand to the safaris in South Africa to the jungles of the Amazon, join us to experience three beautiful countries and cultures while learning valuable veterinary skills and conservation practices.
