  • Title: A short history of veterinary education in Australia: the 120-year transition from education for a trade to education for a profession.
    Author: Caple IW.
    Journal: Aust Vet J; 2011 Aug; 89(8):282-8. PubMed ID: 24635629.
    Abstract:
    World Veterinary Year in 2011 celebrates the 250th anniversary of the establishment of the first modern veterinary school at Lyon in France. To put veterinary education in Australia in its historical context, the veterinary school at Lyon was established nine years before the British had discovered the east coast of Australia in 1770, and 27 years before a shipment of convicts transported from overcrowded gaols in England had arrived in Sydney in 1788. This paper discusses the development of veterinary education in Australia from that time to the present day.
