Similar Courses Elsewhere

The purpose of this section is to detail how the course is similar to other courses in the UH system and how the course might be included in articulation agreements.

31. List any similar classes taught outside of the UH System.	Within the UH System, this course is unique to WCC. Similar courses are taught at most of the AVMA accredited 2-year vet tech programs (e.g.,VETT 232: Large Animal Diseases and Medical Care & VETT 233: Large Animal Clinical Assisting- San Juan College, NM). The addition of this course will allow WCC's vet assisting students to aquire a working knowledge of livestock animal nursing. This class can also be used to satisfy AVMA requirements should WCC offer an AS in Veterinary Technology.
32. List any similar classes taught at campuses in the UH System.	UH Manoa offers a number of large animal courses (e.g., ANSC 453 Animal Diseases and Their Control) in large animal husbandry as part of the BS in Animal Sciences; however, none of these are individually equivalent to the proposed course, and none are intended for Veterinary Assistants or Technicians.
33. How, if at all, is the course intended to count in lieu of a course taught at a four-year campus?
34. How, if at all, is the course similar to upper-division courses in the UH System?
35. How, if at all, is the course appropriate for articulation with the UH Manoa general education core?
36. How, if at all, is the course appropriate for articulation with other department or college requirements on a UH four-year campus?
