Anatomic Pathology Resident
Essential Job Duties
The College of Veterinary Medicine at North Carolina State University (NC State) invites outstanding candidates to apply for three open 3-year residency positions in veterinary anatomic pathology beginning July 2027. The training program focuses on hands-on learning of anatomic pathology and ACVP board preparation under the supervision of eight ACVP board-certified anatomic pathologists, with special interests in aquatics/fish, swine, cancer, oral, and ocular pathology as well as pedagogy and viral oncogenesis. The resident will experience a busy, diverse caseload on both necropsy and biopsy services with curricular teaching and research opportunities. The caseload is predominantly cats, dogs, small ruminants, horses, exotics, zoo animals, and aquatics, with smaller numbers of lab animals, cows, poultry, and pigs. One position, as relevant, may have flexibility to do a specialized track with increased service in aquatic pathology.
Applicants must possess a DVM or equivalent degree from a North American AVMA-accredited or international AVMA-listed veterinary college, have an excellent academic record, strong communication skills, and be committed to a career in veterinary anatomic pathology.
Applications should include (1) a curriculum vitae, (2) statement of career goals, (3) official transcripts from their DVM or equivalent degree, (4) three references submitted via the reference form, and (5) a GPA and/or class rank. Applications submitted by September 22, 2026 will be considered first. Estimated start date is July 19, 2027.
