About the program
A non-thesis master’s option in VMS is also offered with emphasis in food animal production medicine (i.e. dairy, beef, swine, poultry, and aquaculture). The goal of the VMS and ENVT programs is to provide training for the next generation of scientists and educators who will be leaders in biomedical and veterinary research and education.
Faculty in CVM’s Department of Basic Sciences, Department of Clinical Sciences, and Department of Pathobiology & Population Medicine lead each student’s graduate education. Involvement in ongoing research projects conducted by the faculty is an important part of each degree program.
Students in the Veterinary Medical Research graduate program from Mississippi State University specialize in disciplines such as applied clinical research, biocomputing, epidemiology, health disparities, infectious diseases, toxicology, and food safety.
