Resumo: | Colleges of veterinary medicine are often asked to provide evidence of the economic impacts of their activities.  This paper presents methods for evaluating a veterinary college and applies them to the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine.  It assesses short-run impacts on income and employment using input-output analysis.  Long-run benefits are estimated using a combination of economic surplus analysis, travel cost analysis and demand estimation, animal-owner willingness-to-pay based on a survey of practicing veterinarians, and earnings differentials.
