Veterinary Education Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Specialty (Veterinary Surgery, Veterinary Medicine), By Course, By Institution, By Delivery Mode, By Duration, By End Customer, Type, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2025 - 2033
Description
Veterinary Education Market Summary
The global veterinary education market size was estimated at USD 3.34 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 6.04 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6.85% from 2025 to 2033. The market is driven by government and institutional funding for veterinary education and the growing demand for specialized services.
Furthermore, integrating digital and simulation-based learning and bringing it into practice is estimated to drive the market growth in the forecast period. Increased investments in veterinary training by governments and international bodies such as the FAO, OIE (WOAH), and World Bank to strengthen animal health infrastructure and zoonotic disease surveillance have boosted market growth. For instance, in October 2025, Ireland Ministers approved the Veterinary Places Activation Programme (VPAP), establishing new veterinary schools at South East Technological University and Atlantic Technological University. In addition, in August 2025, Canada’s Lakehead University launched construction of a new facility under the Collaborative Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Program with the University of Guelph, supported by a USD 14.78 million government investment. This funding enables universities to modernize facilities, develop One Health-focused curricula, and support research in epidemiology, microbiology, and animal biotechnology. The resulting improvement in academic standards attracts more students globally, especially from developing nations.
In addition, rising demand for specialized veterinary services has become a major market driver. According to the 2024 data of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), there are around 22 specialty organizations recognized by AVMA comprising 46 distinct specialties in the U.S., and over 16,500 veterinarians have been granted diplomas in these specialties after completion of postgraduate training, education, and examination requirements. Moreover, as pet owners become more aware and are willing to spend on advanced medical care, the demand for veterinary specialists in fields such as oncology, cardiology, and neurology is rapidly rising. Thus, veterinary schools are expanding curricula and introducing advanced specialization programs to prepare graduates capable of meeting the evolving demands of modern animal healthcare and precision veterinary medicine.
