The MSU College of Veterinary Medicine held its annual career fair on November 4, 2024. Sixty-four employers joined the College at the Wharton Center and 154 DVM, Veterinary Nursing, and pre-veterinary students explored the fair.
It is widely known that modern, institutionalized veterinary education began when Claude Bourgelat founded the Royal Veterinary School in 1761 in Lyon, France. But veterinary medicine itself began long before Claude got that open-‘er-up order from King Louis XV. In fact, research shows evidence of rudimentary practices and knowledge that date as far back as 9000 BCE.
