Associate Degree in Veterinary Medicine

At Fitzwilliam, our close-knit vet community, consisting of students from all six years of the course, receives outstanding academic, pastoral and social support. The vets have both a Preclinical and a Clinical Director of studies, both Fellows of the College, who personally monitor the progress of each student throughout their training, offering academic and professional advice and support. Our active, student-run Medical and Veterinary Medical Society (FCMVS) arranges a wide variety of talks, debates and social activities throughout the year while our clinical students, through the ‘college family scheme’, provide peer support and guidance to our preclinical vets ensuring a smooth progression throughout the course.

Fitzwilliam College is a dynamic, welcoming and international community committed to developing the talents of all its students, numbering some 750 (including postgraduates). One of the 31 colleges of the University, it was founded in 1869 specifically to broaden access to Cambridge.

We sustain that tradition of ensuring that every student, whatever their background, can fulfil their potential and take advantage of the incomparably rich opportunities offered here. But this is also a forward-looking place, consistent with the College's motto of 'The Best of the Old and the New'.
