Pre-Vet Expos
Since 2008, The Office of the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, Stanford, and the Department of Comparative Medicine have sponsored bi-annual symposia open to the public, in order to provide information about “the path” to becoming a veterinarian, and illustrating the diversity of the profession. These conferences target upper level high school students, college students, academic advisors, and anyone else interested in learning more about vet school requirements, ways to gain experience, and the different veterinary disciplines. Six Expos have been held to-date, all have been free, and each conference has had a similar schedule.
