Senior veterinary students are eligible to receive a $200 grant if they complete a two-week externship in a swine practice or mixed practice with a considerable swine component. To qualify, the student must be a student member of the AASV, and at least one member of the hosting practice must also be an AASV member. The grants are provided by the AASV Foundation to defray the costs associated with externships and help students obtain practical experience in swine medicine.
