Club Objectives

By joining the Vet Aide Club, you can learn more about opportunities to gain practical, hands-on experience in a variety of animal care fields. Our members come from a variety of animal-related disciplines, including Animal Science, Avian Science, and Wildlife, Fish and Conservation Biology.

VAC members learn invaluable information about careers in animal care and the steps you need to take to get you there. VAC provides resources to help you explore and decide possible post-undergraduate goals.

As a member, you can apply to any of our many internship opportunities to volunteer with the UC Davis Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital (VMTH). You can also learn about many more internship opportunities related to animal science and veterinary medicine.
​
Joining VAC also connects you to other students who have similar interests in animals care or veterinary medicine. Overall, the Vet Aide Club strives to promote fellowship among its members and to provide them with all of the opportunities to be competetive in animal care fields.
