On Thursday 9 March 2023 at 3pm (Dublin Time) the UCD School of Veterinary Medicine celebrated the milestone achievement of the Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Nursing Classes of 2024 as they received their white coats in UCD's O'Reilly Hall.

The White Coat Ceremony is an important event in the UCD School of Veterinary Medicine calendar as it marks the students' transition into clinical practice in the UCD Veterinary Hospital, and beyond, in the final year of their degree programmes. 

Our guest speaker at this year's White Coat Ceremony was Professor Michael Doherty, Dean & Head of the UCD School of Veterinary Medicine.
