Course Description:
Ever thought of becoming a veterinarian? Do you have a love for animals big and small? Come to the University of Calgary’s Veterinary Medicine Camp! This week long camp will introduce you to the many things vets do including hands on work with dogs, horses and cows. You will have the opportunity to take a heart rate, learn how a cow’s stomach works, scrub, gown and glove for a mock surgery, work through a case to a diagnosis, learn how to milk a cow and much more. You will be ending off the week with a trip to visit the animals and vets at the Calgary Zoo. Please be aware there will be no Zoo trip on the week commencing July 3rd. Students will also be given a scrub top to wear and take home.
Note: These camps are offered at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine’s Spy Hill Campus, on 85th St NW. Driving instructions will be provided upon registration.
