On the UW-Madison campus, the School of Veterinary Medicine and the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital are strategically located between the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) and the Medical School.

The significance of this relationship is reflected in much of the research done at the School of Veterinary Medicine, research that frequently links concerns for animal health, human health and a healthy environment.

Wisconsin is among the nation's top veterinary schools in attracting research grants from the National Institutes of Health as well as other agencies. The School has achieved widespread recognition for the strength of its research programs, with faculty conducting both basic and clinically applied research on a diverse range of topics.

With some 300 research projects under way at any given time, UW-Madison's School of Veterinary Medicine clearly is a major contributor to advances in both animal and human health.
