Key facts

The Clinical Studies program of University of Guelph encompasses the diagnosis and treatment of companion animals (dogs and cats, as well as birds and exotic species), performance animals (primarily horses) and food-producing animals.

Program

We offer two Master’s options, a DVSc program, and a Graduate Diploma. Master’s students may choose between a course work plus a major research project/paper MSc, or thesis-based MSc (approximately six semesters). The DVSc program requires the completion of residency hours, a qualifying exam and the defense of a research-based thesis. The Graduate Diploma is a threesemester program for veterinarians who wish to upgrade their knowledge.
