The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine has a unique position in the Netherlands. Not only is this the only institution where veterinarians are trained, but is also where researchers are working together on innovative scientific research. In addition, the faculty provides specialist clinical care in the largest academic veterinary hospital in Europe. Thanks to this position, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine is a point of contact for all veterinary matters, both nationally and increasingly internationally. The faculty employs approximately 900 veterinarians, scientists and support staff and counts 1,500 students.

The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University is the only such institute in the Netherlands. It carries an excellent worldwide reputation for teaching, research and patient care. The Department of Clinical Sciences is part of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and includes a fully-equipped academic veterinary teaching hospital, the ‘Universitair Dierenziekenhuis Utrecht’. The university clinic boasts a large fully equipped companion animal hospital with six ORs, an ECVECC-run ICU and a medium care unit, with busy medical and various surgical services. Immediately neighboring the companion animal clinic, the university complex houses a busy equine hospital with more than 100 box stalls, an OR suite with four ORs, a 24/7 neonatal foal ICU (in season) and a 24/7 emergency referral clinic as well as an ambulatory equine service. Our diagnostic imaging department is situated in the middle of these two clinics and supports both equine and companion animal services.
