::UVAS::

The Department was established after the up gradation of CVS to UVAS, in 2002. The original Sections of Medicine & Surgery have been working for over a century, and providing best possible veterinary services to livestock farmers, stakeholders etc. from all over the country. Currently the Department deals with Teaching and Research. It maintains two Hospitals viz. Outdoor Hospital, which looks after ailing animals, and In-Door Hospital, which looks after animals suffering from surgical diseases and accidental cases, and offers admission facilities to large animals. Along with undergraduate classes the department also offers a number of postgraduate (PG) courses. The PG lab and operation theatre provides research facilities to students.
