Welcome to School of Veterinary Medicne (SVM).

Wolaita Sodo University, School of Veterinary Medicine aspires to be a leading campus in veterinary medical education, community outreach and research work and move forward in all of these key mission areas. Since its establishment in 2010, the school has been committed to work through these different areas to improve the productivity, health and welfare of animals and promoting public health. In this regard, we are contributing to the economic development of the community and the country in general by providing quality education, advancing applied research, and serving the community through excellent clinical care of animals and shared learning.

Through a continuous effort of our strong academic, technical and administrative staff, the University management, and our local and international partners, we are able to continue providing the best learning experiences for our students in undergraduate and postgraduate programs. To stay ahead of the curve in new advances in veterinary medicine and bachelor of veterinary sciences, we strive to consistently improve the competency of graduates in knowledge, skill and attitude through enhancing quality education and undertaking problem oriented research set to the regional and national needs.

We are proud of our role in providing excellent, continuous professional training through WSU-SNNPR Livestock and Fishery Office collaborative summer (BSc) programme in animal health program, and Bachelor of Science in Veterinary Science weekend (BVSc) programme for animal health and/production personnel working as development agent in the region. The School Of Veterinary Medicine contributes to the knowledge and understanding through our dedicated staff and students who carry out problem oriented researches in areas that impact animal production and health, public health, food safety, and the environment.
