About the Program IBVEP stands for Idaho Bovine Veterinary Experience Program. There is a growing national demand for veterinarians who wish to work with cattle. IBVEP is designed to expose students to commercial dairy and cattle operations by working with veterinarians in a dairy or cattle operation. This allows the student to gain a working knowledge of cattle operations and dairies, as well as for possible mentorship relationships as animal veterinarians. Since most veterinary students do not come from agricultural backgrounds, exposure to animal agriculture and the veterinarians working with cattle creates awareness of new career possibilities. The College of Veterinary Medicine uses the program to increase the number of students choosing to work with cattle following graduation, and to better prepare veterinary students for their career working with livestock. Who can
apply? What is
the amount of the scholarship? How much
time is required? What
will the student do in the first year? Where
does the student live? What
does the student do if she/he continues in the program a second year? When
should you apply? First and second year veterinary students at WSU should apply by January 15. Students continuing in the program, who participated in a previous summer, are automatically accepted if they apply.
