As summer wraps up, so does the construction at the newly completed Thomas and Patricia Willis Veterinary Medical Education Building — USU's cornerstone hub for its College of Veterinary Medicine.
The state-of-the-art facility will provide modern classrooms, laboratories and clinical training spaces designed to support hands-on learning, research and collaboration.
The building plays a critical role in addressing the growing demand for veterinarians — particularly in rural communities, where access to large-animal care remains a significant challenge. Utah's agricultural industry contributes an estimated $1.82 billion to the state's economy, underscoring the importance of expanding veterinary training within the state.
With the addition of this facility and the continued growth of its four-year Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program, Utah State has expanded enrollment to 80 students per graduating class, helping build a sustainable veterinary workforce for Utah and beyond.

Since 1888, Utah State University established itself as a premier research institution known through the world for its intellectual and technological leadership. USU’s main campus is in Logan, plus 30 campuses throughout Utah. And as long as WiFi is available, you can be an Aggie anywhere through USU Online.
USU competes in 16 NCAA Division I sports. Our student section, the HURD, is one of the loudest and rowdiest in the nation. The diehards become True Aggies by kissing on the block “A” on Homecoming. Adrenaline junkies sled down Old Main hill between classes or rock climb outside. And everyone eats Aggie Ice Cream — even with a foot of snow on the ground.
