Economics of Veterinary Medical Education Summit
January 27, 2016 —
Michigan State University, in concert with AVMA and AAVMC, is sponsoring a conference to bring solutions to the educational debt challenge for veterinarians. Student debt and the cost of veterinary medical education issues are of the highest priority for our profession. All facets of the profession – colleges, students, and employers – need a shared understanding of the issues contributing to these problems in order to find viable solutions to improve the situation. To that end, the goals of the Summit are to:
- Provide recommendations to colleges, students, and employers that address the debt problem.
- Raise awareness among all stakeholders about the severity of the debt problem, its impact on the profession, and the facts surrounding it.
- Gain a shared understanding of all the issues contributing to the student debt problem including cost of education, debt management, and starting salaries.
