Are you looking for an opportunity to build clinical expertise under the guidance and mentorship of a skilled veterinary professional? Michigan Humane, the oldest and largest nonprofit animal welfare organization in Michigan, is offering veterinary externships at our state-of-the-art medical facilities in Detroit, Westland, and Rochester Hills, Michigan. Each of our facilities incorporate a full-service veterinary practice, animal shelter and a shelter medicine team under one roof, allowing our externs to gain experience in a private practice-like setting while also serving the community and gaining exposure to shelter medicine.

As a Michigan Humane extern, you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to a diverse caseload not seen in a traditional veterinary practice setting. Our medical team oversees the daily and emergency care of animals in our clinic and shelter. Externs will benefit from working alongside a team of skilled veterinary professionals while working in top notch medical facilities, utilizing state of the art equipment, including ultrasound, high speed dental, digital x-ray, digital dental x-ray and cautery.

Designed for 3rd or 4th year veterinary students currently enrolled in an accredited veterinary school program, our externships are for those who are seeking hands on clinical experience and mentorship in a clinic and/or shelter setting. Externship experiences are customized based on your professional interests, and may include a combination of clinical medicine, shelter medicine, surgery (HQHVSN, soft tissue and dentistry), field services (rescue and forensic medicine), and behavior.
