About the school

The European University Veterinary Medicine degree is an official qualification verified by ANECA and registered in the RUCT, fully valid in Spain and across the European Union. The university is committed to a hands-on learning model and early clinical training, with diagnostic and simulation technology from the very first year of the programme.

This is a recently launched programme: faculty positions were filled from 2022/2024 onwards and the first cohorts are still in progress. It is advisable to verify the current EAEVE European accreditation status directly at eaeve.org before enrolling: at the time of writing no EAEVE accreditation appears for this degree (new programme). The degree is nonetheless official and qualifies graduates to practise across the EU.

The European University is an international university group with agreements in many countries, and also offers the Veterinary Medicine degree at its Valencia campus.
