This internship is designed to assist the student in making the transition from the classroom to industry. This integration of work allows a degree of independence and an element of learning that is not possible in a conventional classroom. The intent of the internship is to provide each student with an experiential learning opportunity in a management situation as a pre-professional supervisor or manager. Students will complete supervised field work in a selected business, industry, government or educational setting. Students carry out a planned program of education experiences under the direct supervision of an owner, manager or supervisor in their technical field or professional area. The interns will also be supervised by a faculty member who serves as Internship Coordinator. Written and oral reports, along with a journal of work activities and experiences, will be required. Evaluation will be based on the quality of experiences gained from the internship and student work performance.

This course is an organ systems approach to the study of anatomy and physiology using large animal species as the primary model. The course provides a functional integration of basic science and clinical information as it relates to the normal healthy animal in an integrated lecture and laboratory approach. Prosected large animal specimen both fresh and preserved, as well as skeletons and models will be utilized in the laboratory to allow applied reinforcement of concepts presented in the lecture. Histologic slides, kodachromes and radiographs will be utilized to enhance organ recognition through multiple formats and give the student a better understanding of organ function. The students will explore in greater depth and detail the course materials through questions and discussions fostered by the development of group Power Point presentations on topics that are related to the organ systems studied.

Anatomy and Physiology of small animals is a continuation of the study of anatomy and physiology which began using the organ system in VETS 1214 Large Animal Anatomy and Physiology. This course uses both companion and laboratory animals as the models on which we complete the discussion of the normal anatomy and physiologic function of animals. The course provides a functional integration of basic science and clinical information as it relates to the healthy animal in an integrated lecture and laboratory approach. Histological slides, kodachromes, and radiographs will also be utilized to enhance organ recognition and understanding of organ function. The students will explore in greater depth and detail the course materials through questions and discussions fostered by the development of group Power Point presentations on topics that are related to organ system studied.
