Bel-Rea students spend the last quarter of the program (10 weeks) interning at one of our many approved veterinary hospitals and facilities. The internship program allows you to put all of your classroom and laboratory instruction to use in an actual veterinary setting, receiving hands-on, real world experience.

Each internship facility is staffed by highly qualified veterinarians and board certified technicians who work to ensure you receive clinical experience in a variety of areas in order to gain practical experience.

Colorado internship sites include:

• Small animal hospitals
• Equine or large animal-specific hospitals
• Mixed animal hospitals (treat companion animals, as well as some exotics and wildlife)
• Laboratory animal / research facilities
• Zoos
• Veterinary specialty hospitals, including emergency and trauma units
• Veterinary teaching hospitals
