Course summary

The MSc in Veterinary Education is aimed at those actively involved in veterinary education or workplace training, to enhance your skills in excelling the students you support. Focused on mature learners with busy schedules, the MSc in Veterinary Education is a part-time, fully remote, flexible programme. The programme will equip you with the skills to develop your performance as an educator and provide an enhanced learning experience to anyone you teach or train. Developed by experts at the RVC's prestigious LIVE Centre, the programme will enable you to;

  • Obtain expert input on your teaching / training
  • Enhance your career progression
  • Participate in a supportive peer community of veterinary educators around the world.
The programme is aimed at:
  • Professionals who are involved in the delivery of education and training, at either further or higher education institutions, undergraduate or postgraduate level, in the veterinary or para-veterinary sectors
  • Practising veterinary surgeons and other para-veterinary professionals involved in workplace training.
The programme aim to support and develop veterinary educators to become reflective practitioners, who are able to demonstrate self-directedness, independence and autonomy in lifelong learning and scholarship.


Entry requirements

Applicants are required to be actively involved in the teaching and training of students and/or work-place training, as there are compulsory practical assessments that involve teaching. We welcome applicants whose background is in Veterinary Nursing and are aware not all such applicants will hold degrees. Degree-level study is important due to the level of study on the course being Level 7 (i.e. above a Bachelor's degree) and so those without study at at least Level 5 (e.g. a Foundation degree) will first need to complete a Bridging module 'Contemporary Study Skills' with the RVC in order to gain a place on the PGCert. RVNs applying to the PGCert without the equivalent of a UK degree will, if successful, have the bridging module applied automatically as part of their offer conditions. They do not need to apply having already completed this module.
