Mentorships
PreClinical Mentorships are an approved, one-week (minimum 40 hours), off-campus experience for preclinical veterinary students to engage with a DVM mentor during academic breaks (fall break, spring break, semester break, or summer break). They are designed to promote mentorship, while gaining required basic clinical skills for veterinary practice through a variety of setting options.
Students are responsible for seeking out a mentor and completing the Mentorship Approval Form (see below) before being enrolled in the course. The approval form must be submitted prior to the start of the mentorship.
If you have any questions, please send an email to Dr. Alexiou, alexiou@vet.k-state.edu.
