AN ACT relating to a veterinary medicine program at Murray State University.

This bill would allow Murray State University to offer a doctoral degree in veterinary medicine, which is the degree required to become a licensed veterinarian. Currently, state law limits the types of doctoral degrees Murray State can offer, and this change would create an exception for veterinary medicine programs. Who it may affect: students pursuing veterinary careers, Murray State University, and Kentuckians in rural and agricultural communities who rely on access to veterinarians.
