LSU School of Veterinary Medicine

What LSU School of Veterinary Medicine does

The LSU School of Veterinary Medicine is a constituent college within Louisiana State University, the flagship public research university of Louisiana based in Baton Rouge. Founded in 1885 as part of LSU (which itself dates to 1853), the school delivers the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program and supports biomedical research, veterinary medical education, and disaster preparedness activities. It sits within a broader LSU system that reaches more than 30,000 students across eight campuses, 1,300 faculty, and over 330 academic fields of study, offering 70+ master's and 50+ doctoral degree programs and consistently ranked among the elite 1% of U.S. universities. LSU's parent system generated $488 million in research activity and $1.3 billion in economic impact for Louisiana in the past year, with the School of Veterinary Medicine contributing to that research base alongside sister colleges such as the College of Agriculture and the engineering and science programs.

Revenue mechanics for the veterinary school operate on two primary streams: annual tuition and fees published in dedicated undergraduate, graduate, and veterinary medicine schedules, plus research funding from government and institutional grants. Pricing is published annually with separate in-state and out-of-state schedules for each program level. Distribution is split between traditional on-campus instruction at the Baton Rouge campus and LSU Online for fully online degrees and certificates reaching a global audience. The veterinary school's primary customer segments are prospective DVM students and graduate-level researchers, supported by a horizontal segmentation approach within the larger university that also serves undergraduates, professional school candidates, faculty, and current students. Marketing relies on campus tours, the Common Application, the myLSU digital engagement portal, and an SEO-optimized admissions site. The school's competitive position rests on its flagship status, accreditation, faculty research base, and partnerships with Pennington Biomedical Research Center and LSU Health New Orleans and Shreveport for interdisciplinary health-sciences work. The single leadership contact disclosed in the input is Bunnie Cannon, Sr. Director, Outreach and Strategic Initiatives.
