Veterinary Science Technology Program

Veterinary Science Technology at SUNY Delhi

Delhi's Veterinary Science Technology program, established in 1961, was the first of its type in the United States. Since its inception, it has developed into a dynamic, nationally recognized program. The program is fully accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).

The program is designed to meet existing demands for technical personnel in the veterinary and biomedical fields. Extensive laboratory facilities, versatile faculty and staff, and hands-on experiences with companion, laboratory, farm, and other animals are major assets of the program. A required externship (work experience in a veterinary practice, animal research facility, or approved animal facility) also enhances each student's skills and employment potential.
