The clerkship program, coordinated
by the Virginia Maryland Regional
College of Veterinary Medicine’s
Center for Public and Corporate
Veterinary Medicine, is designed to
give 4th year veterinary students
interested in public health medicine
an opportunity to experience
veterinary regulatory medicine in a
real world setting. Students will
explore various aspects of CVM’s
day-to-day workload and policy
issues under the careful guidance of
CVM mentors, who will ensure that
the students derive the most out of
their educational experience.
Depending on their interests,
students may participate in various
activities ranging from attending drug
development meetings between
CVM and corporate drug sponsors to
participating in upper-level
management discussions on public
health policy issues such as
antimicrobial resistance and Bovine
Spongiform Encephalopathy.

Looking for 2 veterinary students to
assist with a Foreign Animal Disease
School at Plum Island, NY. The
students will be assigned to work
with APHIS veterinarians and
technicians before and during the
course. Although the students will
be assisting and not attending the
course as a participant, this is a
tremendous opportunity to learn
about a number of foreign animal
diseases.
