How to become a veterinary pathologist?

To become a veterinary pathologist, you must have significant qualifications, including a bachelor’s degree in biology, chemistry, animal behavior, or a closely related degree and a doctorate of veterinary medicine from an accredited veterinary school. As with medical school students, those seeking to become veterinary pathologists must complete an additional residency or fellowship in veterinary pathology. Some employers prefer veterinary pathologists to have certification from the American College of Veterinary Pathologists, but professional experience can substitute for certification. Excellent analytical thinking skills are required to be a pathologist.
