NS asks Dal to consider offering Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program

The Government of Nova Scotia has reportedly asked Dalhousie University to consider launching a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program at its Truro campus. The suggestion, which was made within the funding agreement between Dal and the Nova Scotia Department of Advanced Education, made a note of the need for large animal veterinarians. The department also shared a statement with CBC in which it said that this program would help to address the growing need for veterinarians in the province. Dal was pleased to receive this request, highlighting “the alignment and opportunity to build on existing infrastructure and capacity at our agriculture campus.”
