Animal Anatomy and Physiology 101
Many careers in veterinary science begin with a Bachelor's degree in a major that is closely related, like math or science. Many 4-year colleges offer graduate programs in veterinary sciences. Basic coursework includes anatomy, animal physiology, biochemistry and bacteriology, molecular and cellular biology, animal disease management, and genetics of farm animals just to name a few.
Veterinary specialists perform many tasks ranging from developing nutritional feed for small and large animals, to designing proper habitats, to creating vaccines to help control the spread of disease. The increase in trade across borders necessitates the strengthening of biosecurity regulations and that will require more and more veterinary professionals.
Specific courses of study will depend on where the individual chooses to specialize. Animal reproduction, or growth, development and nutrition can carry over into fields of scientific research like cloning and stem cell studies.
Anatomy and physiology have to do with the organization of the physical body. Living organisms sense their environment, move, feed, respire (burn fuel to produce energy), excrete and reproduce. All living organisms are composed of cells formed into tissues that in turn form organs and body systems. All these body systems (with exception of the reproductive system) work together to maintain a state of stability, or homeostasis, which is essential for the proper function and survival of the organism.
In the many different fields available in veterinary and biomedical sciences, animal anatomy and physiology are most definitely going to be some of the first required courses it can't hurt to start brushing up now.
