Vet Aspirations - It's Vet Camp and more!
For the past four years, Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine has been hosting a summer Vet Camp. Every year, we've changed it up some, and every year we've added more fun to our camp experience. We're continuing to build on the ways we engage young people in the world of veterinary medicine, and this is the site where you'll see updates about all the cool new things we'll be offering!
NEW: Vet Camp 2015 dates have been set!
Our day camp session (open to 13-17 year olds) will be held June 4-6 and our overnight camp session (open to 15-17 year olds) will be held June 10-14. We anticipate our Vet Camp 2015 applications becoming available towards the end of January/early February 2015. More details to come!

VetAspire
VetAspire is an exciting new program designed for students in grades 11 through undergrad to spend the day at Mississippi State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. Each month, five students will have the opportunity to participate in clinics, lectures, and hands-on activities. The goal of this program is to expose under-served students to the field of veterinary medicine in hopes that they will choose it as a career path. Students will also get to see the real-world impact of math, science, and communications training.
Our VetAspire dates for January - April 2015 are as follows:
*January 29
*February 19
*March 26
*April 16
