Training the next generation in wildlife health diagnostics

SCWDS is a special unit within the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine and welcomes third and fourth year veterinary students to participate in a wildlife diagnostics-focused externship. Our externship program is a great opportunity for veterinary students to gain experience in wildlife disease diagnostics and pathology. Limited opportunities to assist in field investigations or wildlife research are also rarely available. Externships typically range from three to six weeks, based on schedule availability.

Please contact Patricia Flaherty for further information.
