Pursuing an academic study or career in the field of veterinary? Build up your skills with the help of the Institute for Global Studies. We offer vet internships abroad, providing you with an up close and personal look at all aspects of the practice – from animal surgery and recovery to intake and customer service. Veterinarians are a “different breed” and this is a chance to find out if working with animals is your calling.

It may be possible to assist with surgical operations including anesthetics, surgical scrubbing, shaving, inserting catheters, and other technical procedures. Post-surgery work includes rehabilitation and integrating animals back into their families.

Intake is an important role that an intern can help with. Checking in animals and helping them feel comfortable in a foreign environment is key to keeping a comfortable office and clinic. You may assist with taking vital statistics.
