And this year you can apply for a week's worth of work experience (intended for students in the 16 -19 year old category who may be considering a career in the agricultural industry). The emphasis will be on those considering studying Veterinary medicine though other students may find the course of interest. To apply please complete the RVC Welsh Regional Centre: Farm Taster Week Application Form.

RVC on Tour

Each September, the RVC holds events across the country for prospective students, parents, teachers and careers advisors. These events are a fantastic opportunity to speak to current staff and students and find out more about the courses on offer and the career paths available in the veterinary field.

For dates, locations and reports from previous tours see RVC on Tour.

University of London Information Days

The University of London Open Day will take place on 10th & 11th September 2013. This undergraduate Open Day will afford prospective students with the opportunity to gain an insight into what it would be like to study at the University of London. On these two days we will be manning a stand in Russell Square so you can ask us any questions which you may have about the RVC. NB: We will NOT open either campus up to visitors and/or run campus tours on this day. We ONLY man an exhibition stand at this event.

Student Shadowing

The Widening Participation Unit at the College runs a Student Shadowing scheme throughout the academic year. The scheme is designed for those who have had less exposure to Higher Education and would like to know more, and is aimed at pupils who attend non-selective, state maintained schools and/or have no family background of Higher Education.

Please see our Student Shadowing page for full details.
