Degree level

Bachelor’s degreeA first degree. A bachelor’s title does not by itself show whether a program leads to veterinarian, nurse or technician roles: the study pathway is shown separately.

Pathway

Veterinary medicinePrograms the source describes as the academic and clinical qualification toward becoming a veterinarian in the stated jurisdiction. Registration or licensing normally requires further steps, and a qualification from one country does not guarantee registration in another.

Why we classify it this way

The curriculum page says students take core subjects across years 1-6 to acquire the knowledge and skills needed as a veterinarian.“１～６年次には 専門教育の核となる「斉一教育科目」を履修し、獣医師として必要な知識と技能を身につけます。”Source
