A young veterinarian who is soon to graduate from Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga has found her niche in a practice in rural Victoria. Originally from a mixed farm near Geelong, Dr Stephanie Bullen will be awarded a Bachelor of Veterinary Biology/Bachelor of Veterinary Science with Honours Class 1 at a ceremony on Wednesday 14 December. Since taking her professional oath in August, Dr Bullen has been working as an Associate Veterinarian at Maffra Sale Veterinary Centres in Gippsland. “I love working with dairy cows and spending my days out on the road driving through some of Australia’s most picturesque countryside,” she said. “I’ve become not just a member of my practice but the community as a whole, which is very rewarding.”  The ceremony is the culmination of six years of study for the 37 students who will graduate from the veterinary science program at CSU in Wagga Wagga next week.
