Develop expertise in a specific area of veterinary science to progress your professional development.
Massey’s Master of Veterinary Studies (MVS) is an internationally recognized degree, most suitable for those who would like to undertake a combination of taught courses and a research project.
The program can be built around your area of interest.
For example, you could choose an endorsement in epidemiology or public health, or you can develop your expertise across other areas of veterinary science by choosing a MVS with no endorsement.
There is a wide range of taught courses for you to choose from, depending on your area of interest and the endorsement that you choose.
Massey University hosts the only veterinary school in New Zealand.
Its well-equipped facilities include the Wild base wildlife hospital, an equine hospital, a 24-hour pet hospital, and sheep, beef, dairy, and deer farms, all located near campus.

You can complete a 60-credit research report (Coursework), or if you would like to complete more in-depth research, you can undertake a 120-credit thesis (Research).
