Everything you need to know about studying a PhD in Veterinary Medicine

Part of medicine & health.

Veterinary Medicine is the study of preventing, diagnosing, and treating illnesses that affect domestic and wild animals. It also focuses on human health by avoiding the transmission of animal diseases — especially from pets and food-producing animals — to people.

Veterinary Medicine or Veterinary Science allows students to choose from different subdisciplines: Veterinary Toxicology, Poultry Veterinary, Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia, Veterinary Nutrition, Veterinary Radiology, Veterinary Surgery, and others.

A typical Veterinary Medicine curriculum includes subjects like Animal Biology, Cell and Molecular Biology, Health and Disease, Body Systems, Animal Nutrition, Infectious Diseases, Functional Histology, Vet Parasitology, Vet Lab Sciences, etc.

People who study Veterinary Medicine have a deep love and appreciation for animals. Vet students understand that these beings — small or large — have feelings, can experience pain, and suffer tremendously from diseases or abuse. By choosing to become a vet, you can relieve their pain, look after their wellbeing, and make the world a little better one animal patient at a time.

Veterinary Medicine graduates can become researchers focused on developing treatments and medicines for animals or practitioners who are known as veterinary physicians or vets. Career prospects are wide in the field and range from science teachers, marine biologists, park managers, zoo animal care specialists, to veterinary pathologists or animal assisted therapists.

The Department of Veterinary Medicine houses a wide range of skilled staff, facilities and equipment, and has a wide clinical patient group to support students' research.  It also has strong ties with world class groups elsewhere in the University and its surrounding Research Institutes. 

We have particular  Research  strengths in   Disease Dynamics ,  Infection and Immunity ,   Systems Pathology . There is a wide range of potential research subjects on offer: from mathematical studies to small and macromolecules, cells, tissues and model organisms to clinical patients.

The PhD degree by research is carried out over a minimum of three and a maximum of four years full time (five to seven years part-time), including a probationary period of one year.  Each student is assigned a primary supervisor who will then assign an advisor or supervisory team to assist the student under their supervision.

Many research projects are carried out primarily within the Department, but part of your studies may occur elsewhere or even abroad.  Depending on the funder, some courses include lab rotations in the first year.  All students are expected to take part in the Postgraduate School of Life Science’s  Researcher Development Programme .

At the end of their first year of study, students are required to complete a satisfactory first-year report and assessment.  A short report is also expected at the end of the second year and students are expected to participate in Departmental events such as Seminars, Journal clubs and Research Days. Final Examination is by submission and viva voce examination of a thesis.

Continuation to the PhD from MPhil is possible although it is not automatic.  All cases are judged on their own merits based on a number of factors including evidence of progress and research potential; a sound research proposal; the availability of a suitable supervisor, full funding and resources required for the research; and acceptance by the Head of Department and the Degree Committee.

The Postgraduate Virtual Open Day usually takes place at the end of October. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions to admissions staff and academics, explore the Colleges virtually, and to find out more about courses, the application process and funding opportunities. Visit the  Postgraduate Open Day  page for more details.

See further the  Postgraduate Admissions Events  pages for other events relating to Postgraduate study, including study fairs, visits and international events.

We also welcome visits by interested candidates throughout the year: please contact potential supervisors to discuss a visit (see https://www.vet.cam.ac.uk/study/postgrad/apply to find out how to make contact).

What Is the Difference Between a PhD in Veterinary Science & a DVM?

The Advantages of a Ph.D. in Biotechnology

Have you ever wondered why your cat sneezes? Do you want to understand what is in the vaccine that your dog gets yearly? When you’ve heard news stories about advances in food science that involve animals, do you try to figure out what those actually are, and if they’re safe? If you have an interest in the health and welfare of animals, then a future in animal science may be right for you. Several advanced degree options can lead to exciting and fulfilling careers.

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine

The Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree prepares you for clinical practice, working directly with clients and their animals. Upon completion of your undergraduate degree, the DVM typically takes an additional four years. The first three years focus on coursework, laboratory skills and observations in preparation for the fourth year in which you will learn hands-on in a clinical setting. You will learn about a wide variety of scientific disciplines from a veterinary perspective and will also usually have the opportunity to choose from a number of sub-specialties, including surgery, nutrition and dentistry.

Ph.D. in Veterinary Science

A Ph.D. in veterinary science is a research-based degree, which will train and prepare you for a broad range of career choices in a variety of industries involved in animal sciences. The types of organisms you may study will depend on the specific school or program you choose. Opportunities for study include fields such as animal nutrition, agriculture, disease control, pathology, health, wildlife conservation efforts, food safety and animal behavior. The Ph.D. in veterinary science does not allow you to work with any animals in a clinical setting; rather, your research could potentially be used by veterinarians in their own practices.

Other Career Options

A DVM or Ph.D. in veterinary science can open doors to work experiences that you may have never considered. Some of these include employment with the United States Department of Agriculture, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nonprofit organizations such as animal rescues and shelters, the military and pharmaceutical or biotechnology industries. Many people who choose a career option outside of academia with their Ph.D. or outside of private practice with their DVM will often return to academic research or teaching later on in their career to share their experiences with new students. Many career options are very similar with both degrees; the main difference is the lack of ability to practice clinical veterinary medicine with a Ph.D.

Combined DVM-Ph.D. Programs

If you have an interest in animal science from both the research and clinical perspective, pursuing a dual-degree program may be right for you. These programs are extremely competitive and rigorous, only accepting a handful of applicants each academic year. The training provided will allow you to earn both the DVM and Ph.D. degrees, which can set you on a path to conduct excellent research into animal welfare that you can apply directly in your own animal practice. This is known as translational research and is one of the fastest-growing fields in the biological sciences.
