Description
The Veterinary Public Health Club (VPHC) at the Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine (ISU CVM) provides a network for veterinary students interested in public health and those enrolled in the DVM/MPH concurrent program through ISU and the University of Iowa. The club serves as an information source for public health related career opportunities, MPH class scheduling, practicum guidance, and as an avenue for exposure to the various facets of the field of public health through activities in the community, private veterinary practice and interaction with various public health and veterinary professionals. The VPHC is a resource that will help veterinary students and DVM/MPH concurrent students understand the expanding role of veterinarians in public health and provide opportunities for involvement as a student.
