(Formerly MTH/SDS 220). An application-oriented introduction to modern statistical inference: study design, descriptive statistics; random variables; probability and sampling distributions; point and interval estimates; hypothesis tests, resampling procedures and multiple regression. A wide variety of applications from the natural and social sciences are used. Classes meet for lecture/discussion and for a required laboratory that emphasizes analysis of real data. SDS 220 satisfies the basic requirement for biological science, engineering, environmental science, neuroscience and psychology.

Students will learn a very structured method/approach to writing scientific papers beginning with use of their their own data (in figure or table format) brought to class and step by step construction of scientific information that will result in a manuscript, thesis, dissertation or planning document.

Students may select an internship at any approved site in the following areas of veterinary medicine: large or small animal medicine, biotechnology, exotics or wildlife medicine, diagnostic laboratories, or marine animal medicine. Each internship requires 130 hours of work.

This course presents basic concepts in managerial theory by examining such functions as leadership, organization, supervision, and evaluation. Lecture material includes a thorough examination of current techniques in veterinary facility management, technician utilization, client communication, marketing, record keeping, inventory control, and malpractice.

This course is tailored to the knowledge and problem solving skills needed to successfully maneuver concerns and issues that arise within the veterinary profession. It asks students to reflect on the knowledge they have gained throughout their undergraduate education, incorporating their general education courses and their animal science courses to develop solutions to current problems encountered within the profession.

This course provides the practical laboratory experience necessary to perform surgical nursing duties, to anesthetize small animal patients and monitor anesthesia, and to perform veterinary dentistry in small animals.
