Title: Doctor of Veterinary Medicine
Post by: Belgarion on March 14, 2014, 03:44:49 pm

Hey,

So a friend asked me a question today that i wasnt quite sure how to answer so i thought i would put it to you lovely knowledgeable people. She asked if it is possible to undertake the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine having done the Bachelor of Biomedicine? I think she wants it as a back up if the med dream doesnt come true  ;D Ive tried doing some research but can not find a definitive answer.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Yes, you can, but you must do one extra year (4 total) in the DVM because you didn't do the major stream in Science which would shorten it to 3 years.
