Junior Veterinarians: STEM in Action!

STEM & Veterinary Science

Calling all future animal doctors, scientists, and problem-solvers!

Step into the world of veterinary medicine and animal science through an exciting, hands-on STEM experience that brings learning to life. In this course, you’ll explore what it takes to care for and understand animals, from biology and anatomy to technology that’s transforming modern veterinary care.

Inside the Lab:

Veterinary Adventures: Learn the basics of animal anatomy and physiology, including how to take vital signs, understand common diseases, and explore the tools vets use daily. You’ll participate in engaging simulations and activities, such as diagnosing pretend animal patients.

Scientific Inquiry: Conduct cool experiments focusing on biology and chemistry principles relevant to animal health. Discover how vaccines work, analyze mock samples, and learn about animal nutrition.

Engineering Challenges: Apply engineering skills to design solutions for animal care, such as creating specialized enrichment toys or designing a more efficient animal enclosure. You’ll see how technology plays a critical role in modern veterinary practice, from imaging to data analysis.

Pet First Aid & Care Certification: Learn critical skills that can help you care for your own pets! This hands-on session focuses on basic pet first aid, including how to handle emergencies like choking or cuts, and understanding essential animal safety and wellness best practices. You’ll receive a certificate of completion to recognize your new knowledge!

Case Studies & Clinics: Step into the role of a vet! Analyze real-world case scenarios, make treatment decisions, and present your findings like a true professional.

By the end of the week, you’ll think, explore, and problem-solve like a veterinarian—and gain a deeper appreciation for the science, compassion, and innovation behind every life-saving discovery.
