My Field of Study

My Field

Students in the Veterinary Science field can learn how to do a multitude of things involving chemistry, parasitology, entomology, and many other things. The students learn dissections, the inner workings of various animals, and how to cure and treat animals who are sick and need help.  

The main thing that most people think of is to become a veterinarian, which is what I am most interested in. There are other jobs including a traveling vet in third world countries, a vet at a zoo, or

other types of fields as well. 

I have always been a lover of animals since I was a child and since coming to the U of A, my interest in science has sparked as well. And what better way then to put those two loves together into a veterinary science field?

The Leaders in Vet Sci.

Chris Adolph is one of the coolest people in the veterinary field right now due to his leads in parasites in animals, helping countless animals with unheard of parasites. 

Robin Downing seems to be a very important woman in today's veterinary world as she brings about new ways to make animals feel less pain than needed to when they are sick or dying.

Finally, Jessica Rychel is an important woman in this field because she helps animals who have lost control of their moving parts.

Acedemic Journals

There are multiple academic journals in the veterinary science field that are very important. The best one for animal behavior science is called Applied animal behaviour science. For public health for animals, the best journal is called Preventative Veterinary Medicine. Finally, for genetics, the best academic journal for genetics is called Animal Genetics.
