Established in 1945, Banat University is one of the most prestigious ones in Romania which specialise in life and veterinary sciences. Its 6-year veterinary medicine programme is available entirely in English, making it ideal for international students who wish to study in Europe.
Banat University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Timisoara (USAMVBT) was established in 1945 in Timisoara. The medical school specialises in life and veterinary sciences and is named in honour of King Michael I of Romania. Soon after its establishment, in 1948, the faculty received its independence.
Timisoara is the main economic, social and cultural centre of western Romania. This city is among the best places to study medicine in English in Europe at a world-class level. Interculturality is a special trait for this town because it is home to 18 religions and 21 ethnicities.
USAMVBT offers a full-time course in Veterinary Medicine in English for six years. The medical school also has this course completely taught in French. The programme is devoted to veterinary science, animal feeding, habitat, diseases, and reproduction. What is more, you will need to know law ethics to practise professionally, so the university has included this subject in its curriculum.
Starting with the first 2 pre-clinical years, you will learn a lot of theoretical subjects so you can get prepared for the training. From year 3, you will start practising in simulators and laboratories. Soon after, you will be trained in a real veterinary clinic guided by the best professionals.
Internships in the clinic will help you not only to learn how to treat diseases but how to treat and console the animal. It’s also important to know the best way to speak to the owners because they love their animals, and you are the person to explain to them that everything is going to be alright.
University’s address is Calea Aradului NR.119 300645 Timisoara Judet Timis Romania
