A veterinary curriculum is the structured educational program that trains students to become veterinarians. It combines coursework in animal biology, anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and pathology with practical clinical skills. Students learn how to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases in various animals, including pets, farm animals, and wildlife. The program also covers ethics, communication skills, and animal management. It typically includes classroom learning, lab work, and hands-on clinical rotations in veterinary hospitals. The goal is to prepare students to assess animal health, perform surgeries, prescribe treatments, and promote animal welfare professionally.
