Argosy University's Associate of Applied Science in Veterinary Technology Degree Program provides students with the knowledge and skills needed to work with animals of various types. Proper care of animals, laboratory testing, surgery and anesthesia assistance, and radiology are program topics. Under the supervision of full-time veterinarian instructors and certified veterinary technician faculty members, students will work with small mammals (cats, dogs, rabbits, and rodents) on campus, and visit area farms where they can get hands-on experience with larger animals, such as horses and cows.

The AZEW Specialty in Veterinary Technology at Argosy University, Twin Cities Campus
