Texas A&M SCAAEP Job Fair - brought to you in part by the Texas Equine Foundation
Howdy, and thank you for your interest in attending our January 17, 2026 Job Fair hosted by Texas A&M Student Chapter of the AAEP and the Texas Equine Foundation!
Here are some highlights from last year’s Wet Lab and Job Fair Event:
200+ equine focused students (1VM-4VM) from over 22 different veterinary schools
20+ labs ranging from equine dentistry to abdominal exploratory
Lunch with a guest speaker
50+ practices at our Job Fair Event
The Texas A&M SCAAEP Wet Lab is a full day event that allows students to gain hands-on experience in various aspects of equine medicine, as well as the opportunity to meet production companies, clinics, and veterinarians from many different states. Each year we continue to build this event and would very much enjoy your practice’s involvement. Students that participate in our Wet Lab are those that are interested in equine practices and are seeking summer job opportunities, externships, internships, and associate veterinary positions. This is a great time for you to interact with some of the top veterinary students in the country.
After a full day of Wet Lab experiences, students will converge at the Texas A&M Hotel and Conference Center for our Job Fair Event brought to you in part by the Texas Equine Foundation. This evening event will look very much like last year’s Job Fair, just with more space so that we can accommodate our growing interest! Our formal Job Fair will be followed by a cocktail hour where you may continue meeting and mingling with eager equine focused students.
Booth reservations for the Job Fair will be $250. Add your booth to the cart and then click the cart icon in the top right hand corner to complete checkout.
