GPVEC Undergraduate Educational Programs

The University of Nebraska Great Plains Veterinary Educational Center (GPVEC) was developed as a part of the Cooperative Agreement for Veterinary Medical Education between Iowa and Nebraska. Through the program, a defined number of qualified Nebraska students are accepted into the Iowa State University (ISU) College of Veterinary Medicine in exchange, partially, for programs offered at the GPVEC. The GPVEC is located at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC), the third cooperating institution in this program.

Students who participate in GPVEC electives have the opportunity to work with herds and flocks at MARC. These electives are open to fourth-year (senior) veterinary students at AVMA accredited colleges of veterinary medicine. Information on the electives offered can be obtained from the GPVEC Handbook or by contacting Debbie George at (402) 762-4501 or by e-mail at dgeorge@gpvec.unl.edu.
