The ASPCA Veterinary Forensic Science Center (AVFSC) in Gainesville, Florida, is the nation’s first and only multidisciplinary forensic laboratory in the US dedicated to animal cruelty casework involving companion and other domestic animals. We are pleased to offer a 2-4 week externship opportunity at our state-of-the-art facility for veterinary students in their 3rd or 4th year.

Mentorship

Our diverse team composed of 4 forensic veterinarians, 2 crime scene analysists, and 1 veterinary forensic technician will empower you to prevent and respond to animal cruelty within your community.

Real-World Applications

Students will be actively involved in casework, including necropsies. Students will be given a mock live animal case and mock necropsy to work through if there are no new cases during their externship.

Deployment

Due to national response casework, students may participate in field deployment to assist with a range of large-scale alleged animal cruelty/neglect cases such as animal hoarding, dogfighting, cockfighting, and inadequate breeding operations. Deployment is not guaranteed.
