As public concern over the welfare of animals has increased in many European countries and elsewhere, Veterinary Schools have to include animal welfare as a subject in their curricula. Although some schools have already done so, many others have not. Animal welfare is a relatively new subject and as a consequence there is a lack of knowledge among the academic community as to what contents should be included in a general course on animal welfare aimed at veterinary students. This chapter is intended to help those that have the responsibility to start such a course. We hope that it may be useful as well to those who simply want to compare the courses they teach with other courses taught elsewhere. The specific objectives of this chapter are: (1) to provide a syllabus of the main contents to be included in a general course on animal welfare for veterinary students, (2) to explain why those contents should be included and how they could be taught, and (3) to provide a set of useful references and sources of information for those responsible for teaching animal welfare to veterinary students.

This chapter is largely based on the authors’ experience. We hope, nevertheless, that in the long-term it will contribute to build a common set of guidelines for teaching animal welfare to veterinary students in Europe, so that in the future all European Veterinary Schools share at least the main elements of their curricula as it relates to animal welfare.

The chapter is divided into six sections. The first section covers the basic principles of animal welfare, whereas the following five sections deal with animal welfare in each of the main fields in which veterinarians are professionally involved: farm animal housing and husbandry, transport and slaughter of farm animals, companion animals, laboratory animals and wildlife.
