Proposed Project

    Veterinary Student Survey--New--National Center for Infectious 
Diseases (NCID)--Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The proposed survey asks veterinary students to describe their 
knowledge of various public health programs, their career interests 
post-graduation and how they arrived at such a decision, and their 
perception of the role veterinarians play in public health. The 
proposed study consists of an introductory letter and a self-
administered, electronic questionnaire e-mailed to veterinary students 
in the United States. The Association of American Veterinary Medical 
Colleges (AAVMC) has agreed to collaborate on the survey and will 
provide a list of veterinary students from their membership mailing 
list. The study objectives are to describe current knowledge and 
attitudes of veterinary students regarding veterinary public health 
programs, and to determine their interests in a potential career in 
veterinary public health. There is no cost to respondents other than 
their time.
