Associate Dean for Engagement
Happy 2012!
The Office of Engagement team is pleased to continue implementing our strategic goal of providing service and knowledge that impact our global society. Purdue Veterinary Medicine Engagement highlights of 2011 included expanding our lifelong learning programs by launching new online CE modules and hosting one of the largest PVM Fall Conferences to date. Over forty students participated in international experiences and we hosted visitors from all over the globe. For 2012, we introduce our new PVM Extension Team led by Dr. Jon Townsend. Together we can advance engagement in areas such as international programs, lifelong learning, extension, P-12 education, community service, and the scholarship of engagement. We invite you to explore our website to see how Purdue Veterinary Medicine can work with you to make a difference in our communities and the veterinary profession.
Sincerely,
Sandy Amass
