Did you answer YES to any of these? We have an exciting opportunity for you!
UTCVM is in search of exceptional veterinarians who want to make a difference in the lives of numerous students and animals. With the COVID-19 pandemic, UTCVM is exploring innovative and safe ways to best teach our veterinary students, especially in clinical skills laboratories and online (via Zoom). We welcome any help a licensed veterinarian is able to contribute – from as little as 1 hour to as much time as you are willing to provide! We are looking for help for a variety of college-wide activities, including veterinary school application reviews and interviews.
Who are we looking for?
- Licensed veterinarians able to come to the UT Knoxville campus or available via Zoom
- Veterinarians who demonstrate respect, patience, and professionalism
Are there requirements?
- You do NOT have to be a UT alum to participate. All licensed veterinarians who are willing to volunteer are welcome, so please pass this message along to others who you think would be interested in helping.
- No teaching experience or minimum number of years of practice required. Even if you’ve had no experience teaching, just being a friendly face to offer comfort and words of encouragement makes a huge difference to our students (remember yourself as a vet student!).
What are the benefits to you?
- Contribute ideas and thoughts for innovative teaching from a real-world perspective
- Foster relationships with students who may be your future employees and colleagues!
- Learn what UTCVM is currently teaching its students
- Get to know current UTCVM faculty and staff
