providing education and advanced training that prepare veterinarians and scientists to serve society in

policy.
The Cornell University Hospital for Animals is the core clinical training, patient care and research unit of
the College of Veterinary Medicine. Composed of six world-class units, our veterinary teaching hospital

specialists, providing advanced diagnostic and therapeutic care of animals, including 24/7 emergency

The Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine has been working for over 150 years to keep animals and people healthy.
The history of teaching veterinary medicine at Cornell predates the establishment of the College in 1894. Shortly after the university was founded in 1865, Ezra Cornell insisted that a chair of veterinary medicine be instituted. He instructed Andrew D. White, the university's first president, to seek the best-qualified person to teach courses in veterinary medicine and surgery.
