Advanced training courses were held on the basis of the Research Laboratory of Biotechnology of the EHF WKITU, which is a research and production complex equipped with, equipped with modern instruments and equipment and allowing high-level scientific research in priority areas in the field of agriculture, veterinary medicine, meat and dairy products processing technology, as well as in environmental and chemical areas. On the basis of the research laboratory of biotechnology there is a vivarium, which is a research and production complex that meets international standards, on the basis of which scientific research is carried out in biotechnology, embryo transplantation and other priority areas of the veterinary service. Scientists, graduate students, undergraduates, university students have the opportunity to conduct practical research, as well as perform laboratory work on animals. To do this, the veterinary clinic contains cattle, small cattle, birds (chickens, quails, pheasants), rabbits, laboratory mice. In general, the presence of this complex contributes to improving the quality of educational services provided and the level of professional competencies of students.
