Principal's Scholars Program (PSP) Fall Workshops
The College of Veterinary Medicine is a participant in the PSP Fall Workshops for 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. This is a series of six meetings on Saturday mornings exploring careers. The Veterinary Medicine workshops explore the basic science foundation of clinical veterinary medicine and at the same time expose the students to various career paths in veterinary medicine. The PSP groups from Urbana-Champaign and Chicago are linked by videoconferencing via the Internet. Some examples of topics include: the biology of skin and skin wound healing as an introduction to surgery, the problem of Foot-and-Mouth Disease as an introduction to the problems of equine colic, and the biology of synovial joints as an introduction to animal lameness and arthritis.
