Internships
Bel-Rea students spend the last quarter of the program (10 weeks) interning at one of our 130+ 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 credentialed technicians who work to ensure you receive clinical experience in a variety of areas in order to gain practical experience.
