To produce skilled and competent veterinarians of international
standard through the study of combined courses (Veterinary and Animal
Sciences) including internship, the government initially has established
two veterinary colleges at Sylhet and Chittagong in the year 1995-96.
Chittagong Government Veterinary College (CGVC) started functioning on
January, 1996 by admitting 50 students in its first academic session
