Ranked among the top 10 veterinary schools worldwide, the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine (Penn Vet) is a global leader in veterinary education, research, and clinical care. Founded in 1884, it is the first veterinary school developed in association with a medical school. Connections to Penn’s expansive research network and twelve top-rated schools have allowed Penn Vet to become a pioneer in unique dual degree programs and carve a distinctive niche in infectious disease research. Penn Vet serves a diverse population of animals through its two teaching hospitals, which both feature diagnostic and research laboratories. Ryan Hospital in Philadelphia provides care for dogs, cats, and other companion animals. Penn Vet New Bolton Center in Kennett Square, PA, offers on-site veterinary services for farm animals and horses and farm visits through its Field Service unit. Situated on 700 acres, New Bolton Center is also home to Penn Vet’s agricultural research centers and wildlife health program. For more information, visit www.vet.upenn.edu.
