The objective of the Student Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society (SVECCS) is to encourage the education and involvement of veterinary students in all aspects of emergency and critical care medicine. SVECCS covers on-call shifts at the Small Animal Hospital assisting the veterinarians in whatever cases come in. The organization features various lectures from guest speakers and hands-on wet laboratories based on real life emergency situations. SVECCS also offers scholarships, educational reference materials, and gives opportunities for internships in emergency and critical care medicine to members.
