BROWN MACKIE COLLEGE – KANSAS CITY LAUNCES VETERINARY TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM Brown Mackie College – Kansas City proudly announces the start of a new veterinary technology program. The program, which is in the midst of the AVMA accreditation process, offers several unique features for students. The program is housed in a new, state-of-the-art facility in Olathe, KS which includes a spacious lecture hall and teaching lab. The clinical portion of the facility is complete with a treatment area, radiology suite, clinical laboratory, large surgical suite, and dog/cat wards. A unique feature of the program is the experiential learning opportunities made possible by a collaboration agreement with the City of Olathe. This agreement not only allows students ample canine and feline patients, but it also provides veterinary services to some of the area’s neediest animals. Dr. Susan Naples, President of Brown Mackie College – Kansas City, commented “We are very excited about our new space. Our steady student growth over the years and our expanded Occupational Therapy Assistant and Veterinary Technology programs triggered this expansion which is designed to provide our students with a quality learning environment.” The “one course per month” delivery system in the program allows students to devote their full attention to one subject each month rather than juggling multiple classes. Please contact Brown Mackie College-Kansas City at 913-749-5040 to request more information or to speak to an Admissions Representative.
