Training in Veterinary Medicine started with Diplomates in 1942 under the umbrella of Makerere University . The Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine [BVM] programme was launched in July 1962 under the then University of East Africa. In July 1970, following the dissolution of the University of East Africa, the Faculty became fully fledged and part of University of Nairobi . The Faculty grew through the 1960s and 1970s and was mainly supported by countries such as USA , Germany and Norway to name a few. To date it is the only Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Kenya . It has a considerable human resource base comprising Professors, Senior Lecturers, Lecturers and other PhD holders as well as other cadre of staff in support of  it's core functions. Since inception, the Faculty has trained many veterinarians and postgraduates for Kenya, and other African countries in addition to some nationals of a  few western countries .
