Undergraduate Equine and Camelid Medicine Club

About

U-EMC’s mission is to encourage undergraduates at the University of California, Davis to pursue their interests in equine by providing opportunities such as wetlabs, lectures, and more. We will create an environment of inclusivity, understanding, and encouragement by allowing all undergraduates, regardless of their background or declared interest, to participate in this club's board and its activities. Through this, we plan to positively impact the equine community by creating opportunities for exploration in both horsemanship and equine medicine.
