Course Overview

Don’t just learn about Uganda. Experience Uganda firsthand. The Department of Veterinary & Microbiological Sciences at North Dakota State University in conjunction with the Department of Veterinary Public Health & Preventive Medicine, Makerere University, Uganda, have designed this experience to facilitate diversity in student training and exposure. Through this experience you will learn to contribute to producing a broadly inclusive, open minded, world class, and globally engaged science workforce. Studying international animal production, food safety and public health systems will provide a foundation for tomorrow’s global citizens.
