The AASV Foundation is pleased to announce the continuation of the National Pork Industry Foundation (NPIF)Veterinary Internship Program for 2014. Now in its sixth year, the NPIF Internship Stipend enables 6 first- or second-year veterinary students in the United States to gain experience in the swine industry via a mentoring program that includes a one-month summer internship with a swine practitioner. Recipients are encouraged to attend the AASV 2014 Annual Meeting and the 2014 Leman Conference, and must submit a written summary and evaluation of their experiences upon completion of the program. Each of the six selected students receives a stipend of $3300 to defray the cost of participating in the internship.

The AASV Student Recruitment Committee coordinates the selection of the grant recipients. Funding for the program is administered by the AASV Foundation.
