Veterinary Science Building
Veterinary Science Building Construction
Located on the University’s West Farm, the building will be utilized by undergraduate students in the Hutson College of Agriculture who are majoring in Veterinary Technology and Pre-Veterinary Medicine, as well as future students in the University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. In 2024, the state biennium budget included $60 million in funding for the facility. The one-story building will measure over 88,000 square feet and offer classrooms, laboratories, offices and support space, as well as common areas for students to collaborate and study.
Impact
Murray State has the largest pre-veterinary medicine/veterinary technology enrollment of any university in Kentucky. Murray State is also moving forward with a new College of Veterinary Medicine, offering a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree to support future generations of veterinarians and advance both the region and the Commonwealth in critical areas of economic growth, workforce development, and industry needs.
