Veterinary technicians typically work under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian doing clinical work such as performing various medical tests and treating medical conditions and diseases in animals.  They also perform laboratory tests and take blood samples, assist with dental care, prepare tissue samples, and assist veterinarians in a variety of other diagnostic tests and procedures. Veterinary technicians work in all phases of animal care, including surgical nursing, laboratory procedures, and office administration. Employment opportunities include positions in veterinary offices or hospitals, biomedical research institutions, zoological facilities, and pharmaceutical and pet care industries.

 

The program, which culminates in an Associate of Science degree in Veterinary Technology, prepares students with the basic knowledge and practical training necessary to function as an entry-level employee in a veterinary medical setting. The Veterinary

Technology (VT) program is carefully balanced between theory and practical instruction, including clinical rotation and field experience during an externship. Fundamentals of chemistry, biology, anatomy, and physiology are emphasized, and graduates are prepared to meet requirements for the California Registered Veterinary Technician State Board Examination. The VT program is not intended as a pre-veterinary program.
