Places where teaching actually happens. Teaching hospitals, clinics, farms and laboratories are stated per campus, only as published.

Accreditation, evaluation and recognition

Recorded per program and campus, with the authority’s role. Accreditation, professional validation, degree-awarding authority and eligibility toward registration are different things; none of them is full professional registration, and a qualification accepted in one jurisdiction is not automatically accepted elsewhere.

  • 共同獣医学科 (Joint Department of Veterinary Medicine)

    Stated by the schoolRoyal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS)Eligibility toward registrationUK

    Scope: Faculty statement that graduating from the Joint Faculty exempts graduates from the UK veterinary qualification examination; not confirmed on an RCVS record in this session.

    Further requirements: Other RCVS registration requirements not examined.

    The qualification is recognised as meeting the educational requirement toward registration in the stated jurisdiction. Full registration also needs the other steps the authority lists, and recognition in one country does not guarantee registration in another.
