Course content

At Surrey, we’re focused on collaborative veterinary research, working with leading research institutions, veterinary practices and the wider veterinary industry, to ensure everything we do is relevant to the sector.

We embrace multidisciplinary research, in line with our ‘One Health, One Medicine’ perspective, and recognise the interdependence of human, animal and environmental health.

We’re home to the Veterinary Health Innovation Engine (vHive), a research centre, start-up and incubator supported by a co-investment of £8.5 million in resources, dedicated to the development and adoption of new digital technologies in animal health.

As a PhD student at Surrey, you’ll benefit from our multi-million-pound facilities including our Veterinary Pathology Centre and Veterinary Biomechanics Laboratory. You’ll also work alongside academic staff with different areas of interest and expertise, such as applied clinical research, fundamental science, epidemiology and pathology.
