The Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences have a comprehensive range of Postgraduate level qualifications in Veterinary Science, Animal Science and Biomedical Science at Postgraduate Diploma, Masters and PhD level. There are about 80 PhD candidates from all over the world engaged in research in a wide range of topics including epidemiology of disease, public health, infectious disease and parasitology, pastoral production systems, animal behaviour and welfare, and wildlife health. The Master of Veterinary Medicine (MVM) programme enables veterinarians in practice to continue their education beyond their primary veterinary degree. The MVM programme is a professional development programme delivered by distance education. The Master of Veterinary Medicine (Biosecurity) and Master of Public Health (Biosecurity) degrees are purpose-built training programmes with a shared epidemiology foundation delivered to specific target audiences in Asia. These courses are principally delivered online but also include regional workshops and events. The Master of Veterinary Studies (MVS), Master of Veterinary Science and master of Science are delivered on campus. These programmes can be modified to suit individual requirements. The Institute has over 300 post-graduate students and many of these are international students.

The Institute of Veterinary Animal and Biomedical Sciences (IVABS) is a major provider of cost-effective, applied, research to internationally recognised quality standards. The nearly 100 academic and research staff are involved in well over 200 research projects many of which contribute to large, multidisciplinary, research programmes that are of great relevance and importance to New Zealand.
Some research programmes are organised into either formal University Centres or informal Research Groups. Most of these Centres/Groups draw their expertise from more than one Institute in the College of Sciences and some also utilise expertise from external organisations. The primary function of Centres/Groups is the coordination and profiling of research but some also have a significant service and teaching role.
Research Centres / Groups include:
* EpiCentre (veterinary epidemiology)
* Estendart (providing pre-clinical and clinical services to the global animal health industry)
* Sheep Research Centre
* Equine Research Centre
* Animal Welfare and Bioethics Centre
* Deer Research
* Centre for Service and Working Dog Health
* The New Zealand Wildlife Health Centre
