Taking a look at the pets that live in our homes, on our farms, and in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries, this course will examine some of the common diseases and treatments for domestic animals. Toxins, parasites, and infectious diseases impact not only the animals around us, but at times\u2026we humans as well! Through veterinary medicine and science, the prevention and treatment of diseases and health issues is studied and applied.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Course Outline:<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unit 1 Introduction to Veterinary Science (11%)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Learn what veterinary science is and the history and ongoing research. Investigate the educational and other requirements for veterinarians and veterinary scientists. Look at ethics and controversial issues applicable to the profession.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unit 2 Small Animal Medicine (11%)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Learn what the nervous, endocrine, and gastrointestinal systems consist of and what they do for the body. Examine how skeletal and muscle disorders and infectious diseases can affect animals.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unit 3 Large Animal Medicine (11%)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Examine some of the diseases and conditions that affect livestock, including horses, cattle, and swine.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unit 4 Exotic Animal Medicine (11%)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Discuss veterinary medicine for exotic animals, including those animals that are kept in zoological parks and sanctuaries.
