Other information
The Veterinary Public Health course aims to give an overview of the veterinary profession other than that of conventional practitioner "small or large animals".
Important information about the written exam:

- The exam is composed of 2 parts, one will be provided by Prof.Philippe for his course and the other will be provided by Prof.Dehoux encompassing his course and the subjects given by the 5 speakers. The exam will consist of 10 questions per party. Prof Dehoux’s exam will include 7 questions on his course and 3 on the subject given by the speakers.
- Failing to validate one of the two parts (with a score less than or equal to 7) automatically gives a final score of 7/20 or lower, even if the arithmetic average is higher. Partial dispensations valid for the sessions of the same academic year are possible if one, but not the other part of the course is successful, after request and written agreement of the Profs (by @mail).
