The College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Bio-security (COVAB) is committed to nurturing citizens to become productive, entrepreneurial, job creators, skilled and with sufficient capacity to transform the existing challenges in the animal resources world into economic and livelihood opportunities.

Unlike in 1971, when the primary aim of the faculty of Veterinary Medicine (FVM) was to produce quality veterinary degree graduates to serve in the state sponsored veterinary departments, today COVAB has made significant strategic changes in order to cope up with the ever changing national, regional and global enevoronment.
