Scholarships awarded to veterinary students
Seven of the recipients are studying in the UK.
68 students across Europe will benefit from the scheme.

MSD Animal Health and the Federation of Veterinarians of Europe have announced that 68 veterinary students across Europe will receive scholarships as part of the 2022 Veterinary Student Scholarship Program.

Each scholarship is worth US$2,500 (£2,050) and is intended to help enhance the recipient’s academic experience. Only students enrolled in their third, fourth, or fifth year of study were eligible.

The successful applicants are based across Europe, studying veterinary medicine in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey and the UK.

Seven of the successful applicants are based in the UK, including five at the University of Bristol and two at RVC. The scholarships were awarded based on a combination of merit, financial need, and diversity. 

Rens van Dobbenburgh, president of FVE, said: “This is the seventh year of successful FVE and MSD Animal Health collaboration. Providing support to these outstanding students will greatly impact and improve the future of veterinary medicine for years to come.”

Her sentiments were echoed by Rob Kelly, senior-vice-president and Head of MSD Animal Health for Europe, Russia, North Africa & Middle East: “As MSD Animal Health, we are honoured to support these outstanding 68 recipients, who are the future of veterinary medicine. 

"By continuing our commitment to the veterinary profession, we ensure that animals will be provided with high-quality medical care also in the future.”
