On 5 December 2024, the Faculty of Veterinary Science held its annual oath-taking ceremony in the University of Pretoria's Aula, marking a significant milestone. In 2024, the BVSc class of 2024 became the 100th cohort to graduate from the program, celebrating a century of awarding the BVSc degree.
Our alumni can take pride in the fact that - like the students at this occasion – they were part of a long and proud tradition. It also highlights the long-standing tradition of excellence at the University of Pretoria.
The event was a testament to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved over the years. While the veterinary science program has evolved, its core mission—positively contributing to the university, the country, and food security—remains unchanged.
Looking ahead, the faculty is also proud to recognize the veterinary nursing profession, which will celebrate its 50th anniversary in South Africa in 2027, a milestone that will be significant for both the profession and the University of Pretoria.
Congratulations to all veterinary science and veterinary nursing students graduating early in 2025. Your achievement is a remarkable one, and we commend you for your dedication and success.
