We bring you an unadulterated and unfiltered take on the current problems with the veterinary education system in Nepal through the experiences of recent students. We have 4 recent vet graduates with us on this episode discussing on the topic of veterinary education in Nepal. The veterinarians are former central committee members of the Nepal Veterinary Students Association (NVSA) from the current 4 vet schools of Nepal.
Guests:
1. Dr Anjali Nepal (NVSA- AFU, RECOM Coordinator, 2019-20),
Agriculture and Forestry University
2. Dr Chiran Krishna Tiwari (NVSA IAAS, Secretary, 2019-20),
Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science - Tribhuvan University
3. Dr Milan Khanal (NVSA-NPI, President, 2019-20),
Nepal Polytechnic Institute - College of Agriculture, Engineering, Medical & Veterinary Science - Purbanchal University
4. Dr Utsaha Khatri (NVSA-HICAST, Editor-in-chief, 2019-20),
Himalayan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology - Purbanchal University
The reason we brought you this episode is to have an open discussion about the problems in the veterinary education which we all know but don’t openly talk about. Veterinary education is considered as a foundation of the entire veterinary profession and animal health service, but this foundation has been deteriorating year by year. We all faced the substandard veterinary teaching and wanted for it to get better, but the situation is still the same. We hope this episode will get people aware about the issues and is also a plea towards the current figures of authorities to work in the direction of improving the problematic situation.
We have ex-students from all the vet schools in Nepal, so that we can see an overall picture in different universities and compare/contrast between them. The experiences of the recently graduated young vets help us see the real situation, the prevalent gaps, struggles, challenges and standards of the current veterinary education. In this episode we talk about regularity of classes, course curriculum, university politics, clinical trainings, friendships, examination etc.
