This week is Welcome Week for all our new
students arriving at Edinburgh to begin student life, and an especially warm
welcome (and welcome back) to our new and returning veterinary students. We are
also delighted to be welcoming our next cohort of Masters students to the Royal
(Dick) School of Veterinary Studies (R(D)SVS), whether they will be joining us
at the Easter Bush campus or online to begin or continue their studies in
animal behaviour and welfare.
In these uncertain times Welcome Week, and
the first semester will feel a little bit different to usual for all of us, but
the education teams have been working really hard to keep the campus secure and
to provide a hybrid model of teaching with a blend of online and in person
teaching. We are confident that our students will still have a great experience
with us, and some of the new ways of teaching may even be an improvement on
what we used to do in the past! For our MSc in Applied Animal Behaviour and
Animal Welfare it is a particularly special year since it marks 30 years since
the course began, as the oldest MSc programme in animal welfare in world. We
will also be planning events to celebrate this special milestone.
The R(D)SVS is consistently ranked as one
of the best veterinary schools in the world (most recently voted top in the UK
by Guardian Newspaper: https://www.ed.ac.uk/vet/news-events/news-and-archive/2020-news/guardian-league-table-2021),
and is located in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. If you are
interested in studying with us as a veterinary student then you can find out

We hope to be welcoming you to our campus
one day too!
