Veterinary Medicine

The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at University of Milan offers a stimulating environment for study and research in the areas of ​​Veterinary Medicine, Animal Production and Veterinary Biotechnology.

After transferring the Faculty from Milan to Lodi in 2018, it now has the newest facilities designed by the Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, an educational hospital where students progressively approach clinical-assistance activities involving different animal species under the guidance of the medical staff, and an experimental zootechnical center for learning about the different aspects of animal husbandry.

The provision of educational programmes, which are constantly linked to both the professional realities and the needs of the territory, has gained strength from the consolidated knowledge and experience that is rooted in one of the oldest schools dedicated to the study of animal diseases and husbandry, namely, the Veterinary School that was founded in 1791 and merged into the University in 1932.

Faculty events

Al via il ciclo “Unimi Philosophy Lectures”: protagonista della prima lezione è Peter Singer, filosofo e docente del Centre for Human Bioethics di Princeton, considerato il padre fondatore del movimento di liberazione animale e dell’“altruismo efficace”. Confronterà i suoi volumi “Animal Liberation” (1975) e “Animal Liberation Now” (2023), mettendo in luce i successi e i fallimenti del movimento animalista. Evento promosso dal dipartimento di Filosofia “Piero Martinetti”.

Nell’ambito della collaborazione tra la Statale e l’Istituto penitenziario di Bollate, una giornata dedicata al progetto nato dalla Call for Ideas “Non solo limiti” dell’Ufficio progetti sociali e volontariato. Il Brigantino è una collana di letteratura carceraria nata a Bollate. Aprono i lavori il rettore Elio Franzini e Roberto Bezzi, responsabile Area educativa di Bollate. Seguono diverse testimonianze e la performance “Eppure ti scrivo...”.

Esistono soluzioni per un uso consapevole della plastica? In occasione della Giornata mondiale dell’ambiente, il dipartimento di Scienze e politiche ambientali della Statale propone un’iniziativa volta a condividere con la società civile una riflessione sul tema della plastica e su alcuni dei recenti risultati di ricerche riguardanti il suo uso, il riciclo e gli effetti del rilascio in ambiente. Sono previste una mostra fotografica e delle installazioni interattive per vedere le microplastiche.
