Abstract
The main purpose of veterinary education institutions is to prepare qualified, well-trained and knowledgeable professionals ready to serve local and global communities. Veterinary programmes vary within and among countries, creating a disparity in competencies. In less-developed economies, adhering to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) ‘Day 1 competencies' and following its ‘Guidelines for a Model Core Veterinary Curriculum' may decrease this discrepancy. The authors offer a comparison of Ukraine's veterinary epidemiology curriculum with the OIE suggested ‘Core Veterinary Curriculum', particularly for infectious disease pathology in which epidemiology is taught, and propose different paths to structure advanced educational programmes in epidemiology. This course is relevant for the development of international animal trade and expansion of markets for animal products in Ukraine.
