Summary of Duties and Responsibilities:

The College of Veterinary Medicine at Iowa State University is now accepting applications for an Intern with a focus on Small Animal (Rotating) services at the Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center (LVMC). The LVMC offers a Small Animal Rotating internship designed to prepare interns for in-depth training in various areas of veterinary specialty practice. Our programs strive to prepare trainees for active careers in academia, specialty practice, or for further pursuit of a residency program.  The intern program is one year in duration.

Interns will follow specific program guidelines and may rotate through various internal and external specialty areas specific to their program’s requirements.  Interns are expected to provide backup duties in emergency cases, along with weekend and after-hours obligations. Interns participate in clinical rounds, morbidity and mortality, and pathophysiology seminars, as well as various sections and departmental academic programs. Attendance and participation in the seminar component of the training program are required by all Interns. 

All offers will be made contingent upon the successful completion of a background check before the employment start date.  Proof of rabies titer read at an acceptable level within two years prior to the employment start date, as well as any additional health requirements enforced by external rotations during the course of this program will be the responsibility of the intern.
