The Texas Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory (TVMDL), a part of the Texas A&M University System, is seeking applicants for an intern position in diagnostic vet pathology. The successful candidate will be involved together with eight other pathologists in providing a necropsy and histopathology service to the livestock, pet animal, and aquatic industries. The case load involves many different animal species and provides for an excellent preparation for the ACVP board examination under the guidance of several boarded pathologists. The position requires a veterinary degree from an AVMA accredited or approved school and completion of at least two years of a residency program in vet pathology. Excellent written and oral communication skills in English are required. The position is at an 80% effort level allowing the intern to prepare for the board examination via course work or independent studies. The position can be upgraded to a 100% level. Advancements to vet pathology positions are possible after successful completion of the ACVP examination. Salary for this intern position ranges from $40,000 - $50,000 depending on training and experience. Some veterinary practice experience in addition to pathology experience would be advantageous.
