International Veterinary Program – Costa Rica
The International Veterinary Program is a unique program focusing on acquiring skills used in the areas of the dairy and beef cattle industries by a week of work studies in different dairy and beef cattle industry businesses in the local area.
This program is combined with cultural immersion through a homestay program to better understand the culture and mentality and to strengthen labor relations with people of Latin origin.
It is important to know that our international veterinary program is elaborated for groups only (at least 10 participants).
