The Postgraduate Certificate in Veterinary Clinical Studies at the RVC provides the career-building opportunity for students studying outside the UK to undertake training in the RVC’s comprehensive clinical educational programme, including at the RVC’s leading hospitals. Each year, we offer places to students engaged in veterinary training around the world. Some great advantages of the course - A minimum of 28 weeks in the hospitals and practices linked to the RVC. - The opportunity to take placements at veterinary practices throughout the world. - Lectures, seminars and workshops led by world-class clinicians. Working as a member of the clinical team, you will learn in small groups through observation, discussion and practical experience. While at the RVC, you will receive feedback on your clinical work each week and be formally assessed at the end of each clinical rotation. Mentors on external placements will also provide feedback on your work with them. Further Details - The certificate is a 48-week programme. - Flexible start dates: typically two entry points per year (January & May) subject to availability. - Completion of the Postgraduate Certificate in Veterinary Clinical Studies leads to a Master’s level qualification, which could have an effect on your funding status for any further study.
