The overall goal of REEVES is to introduce and train talented individuals for graduate and professional programs and livestock-associated careers, while educating them on veterinary entomology and providing them with a project relevant to stakeholders. This program is designed to highlight team science in a conducive and positive environment for undergraduate students through participation in research and Extension collaborations between faculty in different states.
