Summary
Veterinary Public Health Workforce and Education Act. - Amends the Public Health Service Act to direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to: (1) award competitive grants to increase the number of veterinarians in the workforce and veterinary teaching faculty in the field of veterinary public health; (2) establish fellowship programs for veterinarians to provide on-the-job training in food systems security and veterinary public health; (3) establish within the Health Resources and Services Administration of HHS a Division of Veterinary Medicine and Public Health to administer veterinary medicine and public health programs; and (4) submit to Congress an implementation plan for this Act. Defines "veterinary public health" to include biodefense and emergency preparedness, emerging and reemerging infectious diseases, environmental health, ecosystem health, and the sum of all contributions to the physical, mental, and social well-being of humans through an understanding and application of veterinary science. Authorizes the Secretary to enter into education loan repayment agreements to increase the number of qualified veterinary faculty in veterinary public health.
