Seven members of the OSU Student Chapter of the American Association of Equine Practitioners (SCAAEP ) represented the College of Vet Med this past weekend at the 2014 Texas A&M SCAAEP Wet Lab. Students from 18 schools attended the wet lab where each student picked 4 labs out the 23 that were offered that day. Each lab was taught by Texas A&M College of Vet Med faculty and included: emergency and critical care, farrier skills, radiology, ultrasonography, ophthalmology, emergency response, basic and advanced lameness to name a few.
After each student participated in their wet labs, 12 major equine hospitals were on the Aggie campus for a job fair geared to students interested in equine externship and internship programs. Following the job fair, the clinicians and students joined in a Q & A session covering: what clinics are looking for; how to represent yourself on externships; how to prepare for a year clinical internship; and the benefits of internships.
