Virtual Information Session

Meet Jennah Bosch '24

Bosch, of Wilmington, is a graduate of App State’s online Bachelor of Science in veterinary technology program, which began in August 2022 and is offered through the College of Arts and Sciences. She is one of five members in the program’s first graduating class.

With over 30 years of experience as a veterinary technician, Bosch saw the program as an opportunity to make a career transition and pursue a new role as an educator. The flexible online program allowed Bosch to continue working while pursuing her degree. She received “unwavering positivity and continual support that helped keep me centered and focused,” Bosch said of the program’s faculty.

After graduation, Bosch plans to pursue an online master’s degree in veterinary forensics from the University of Florida, explore professional development and leadership opportunities provided by her current employer and apply for an adjunct teaching position in App State’s vet tech program.

“I really enjoyed helping new veterinary tech students in this program have that ‘aha’ moment of understanding,” said Bosch. “I’m very passionate about teaching and lifting up this new wave of veterinary technicians so that our profession can progress and receive the respect it deserves.”

For prospective students considering App State’s online vet tech program, Bosch highlighted the program’s learner-centered focus: “You’re not doing it alone. The instructors are always available with videos and guidance, and you collaborate with classmates through team-based learning.”
