The program takes advantage of the wide variety of courses already established in the School of Natural and Life Sciences (Department of Biology) and College of Health Professions and Nursing (Department of Biomedical Science) at Long Island University, and basic science courses offered in the first two years of the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine professional program, including bacteriology, virology, parasitology, epidemiology, immunology, toxicology, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology. Courses specific to CBVS include a weekly seminar on research carried out in the Lewyt College of Veterinary Medicine or at other institutions by faculty or graduate students.
