Founded in 1791, it is the oldest and largest veterinary school in the United Kingdom. | |
| − | |History=<b>The foundation of The Veterinary College, London</b>, in 1791 marked the establishment of the <i>veterinary profession</i> in this country. In the racing seasons of 1769 and 1770 the racecourses of England were dominated by one horse, <b>Eclipse</b>. Eclipse was a sufficiently important horse to make it necessary to carry out a post mortem, but there was no veterinary school and no qualified veterinarian in the country except the Frenchman Charles Benoit Vial de St Bel. St Bel attended the corpse of the famous racehorse and subsequently published his post-mortem findings. The Veterinary College, London, was born in the parish of St Pancras in 1791, on the present-day site of The Royal Veterinary College’s Camden Town campus. On 4 January 1792, the first four students attended the College to begin a three-year course intended to cover all aspects of the veterinary art.

The disciplines of Epidemiology, Microbiology, Pathology, Immunology and Clinical Science are drawn together in the Centre for emerging, endemic and exotic diseases (CEEED Centre), opened in 2008 and designed to facilitate multi-disciplinary research in Infectious Diseases. Animal Welfare is fundamental to our research mission and underpins our research programmes.The Structure and Motion Laboratory has world leading facilities to study locomotion. | |
