Scholarships

 

Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine is excited about our participation in the International Veterinary Scholarship program. KSU CVM developed this program to help faculty members from veterinary schools around the world obtain quality continuing education that might otherwise be unavailable to them. In cooperation with the Western States Veterinary Conference, Novartis Animal Health, and Hills Pet Nutrition, KSU CVM is able to bring selected faculty members to the U.S. to attend the WSC as well as spending time at the CVM and at Hill’s in Topeka, KS.

In 2007, Dr. Zoltan Dioszegi from St. Istvan University in Budapest, Hungary and Dr. Ricardo Lippke from FAVET-UFRGS in Brazil participated in this program.

In 2008, Dr. Yuki Tachika from UNAM in Mexico City, Mexico and Dr. Meena Sarikaputi from Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand were able to participate.

In 2009, Dr. Roger Gonzalez from Asuncion Paraguay and Dr. Mauricion Pereira-Mora from Herredia, Costa Rica were the faculty members participating in the program.

For 2010, we were excited to host Drs. Anne-Laure Etienne from the University of Liege in Belgium and Alan Labra Araya from the University of Concepcion in Chile.

 

Kansas State University is also involved in a student exchange program with the Veterinary School at the Free University of Berlin. Several students from KSU have had the opportunity to learn about veterinary education in Germany and more are scheduled to go. Recently, Christina Müller and Stefanie Grof from Berlin visited our school. We enjoyed their visit and hope they will remember the time fondly.
