Learning unit contents

This clinical learning should strengthen basical skills of each clinical discipline in the chosen option. Improved learning is granted by putting into practice theoretical knowledge (more time spent in contact with clinical cases) stimulating more reflection on cases by direct contact with clinicians and additionnal reading. These basics may then be applied to other species allowing to graduate as a general practitioner. The clinical activities are based on 13 weeks of rotation.

All the detailed information about the organization of the clinical rotations in the equine option can be found on E-campus, course Module clinique des équidés, Chirurgie, Orthopédie et aensthésie des équidés 160h Clin. VETE2094-A-a: section : Informations pratiques clinique équine.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

During the clinical rotation of this teaching unit, various learning activities are organized to permit students to obtain clinical skills listed in the section "Master 2: equine clinic" of the Log book of clinical skills. This list is available on e-campus, course VETE2094-4 "Log book of Master". The student has to validate (signature by a professor, assistant, intern) each of the skills in the electronic version of the log book when performed.

Furthermore, during the clinical rotation the student has to ask the electronic validation of  clinical cases (2nd part of the log book of master: file with all the clinical cases followed during the clinical rotations under the supervision of a membre of the faculty). This file will be compiled during the masters in the course VETE2099 Activités professionnelles transversales.


A "clinical skill" can only be validated if performed correctly and actively under the direct supervision of a qualified member of the staff (professor, assistant, resident, intern or technician according to the skill). Only assisting to a seminar or practical exercice is not sufficient.

A "clinical case" can only be validated if the student has participated actively to the exam (case history, clinical and special exam, necropsy, complimentary exam and discussed with a staff member about the differential diagnosis and/or the treatment. Only doeing a general exam or giving a medication is not sufficient.
