BVSc (Hons) Veterinary Science (University of Bristol)

Benefitting from a brand-new curriculum, this course provides students with cutting-edge, evidence-based teaching methods. You will have the opportunity to be involved with case-based learning (addressing real-life clinical scenarios), signposting lectures, authentic coursework, a flipped classroom approach and built-in consolidation activities. You will also benefit from: Opportunities to explore in-depth study and the Veterinary School's cutting-edge research; getting hands-on with animals from the start of the curriculum, with a range of placements; working alongside experts in their field. Benefit from a dual campus experience with learning across both city and nearby rural campuses. You will benefit from an innovative curriculum and gain inspiration from world-leading researchers. Our celebrated team of clinical demonstrators will nurture you to develop essential practical skills. Students can enjoy the onsite cafe, gym, student barn and abundant green spaces, alongside our welcoming and supportive community of staff and students. Our Veterinary Science BVSc is accredited by EAEVE, AVMA and RCVS. Our revised curriculum is mapped to five vertical themes which will run throughout the whole curriculum: Scientific foundations of veterinary medicine; Practical and clinical skills; Clinical and professional reasoning; Developing as a professional and lifelong learner; Animals, people and planet. Students also spend time on farms and in veterinary practices during vacations (Extra-Mural Studies; EMS), as required by the RCVS. For the first three years, you will be primarily based at the main University campus in Clifton, with time spent at the clinical campus in Langford. Years four and five are taught mainly at the Langford campus.
