Veterinary Technology Complex Expansion Provides Hands-On Learning for Students

FAMU unveiled a 4,000-square-foot, $1 million addition to the University’s College of Agriculture & Food Sciences Veterinary Technology Complex at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the expanded Gadsden County facility gives the faculty room to teach hands-on skills with live animals.

There is also a large anatomy floor for up to 30 students, an expanded prep room and an expanded surgery room. The expanded complex now has the capacity to house dogs and cats for a short period of time.

Construction was completed in the summer of 2018. For more information contact (850) 561-2644.

FAMU Spring 2019 Graduates Complete Google’s Tech Exchange Program

Two Spring 2019 graduates have completed the Google Tech Exchange Program. Chris Griffin of Mobile, Ala., and Cornelius Cooke of Dallas, Texas, both gained hands-on training and experience during the program. They graduated with Bachelor of Science degrees from FAMU’s College of Science and Technology.

The Google Tech Exchange Program’s yearlong residency included 15 course credit hours (with up to three credit hours focused on FAMU’s online courses). The courses were offered by leading professors and Google engineers. All credits earned counted toward the completion of their degrees. Throughout the year, they took a selection of applied computer science courses, including machine learning, product management, computational theory and database systems.
