The purpose od the article is to carry out a survey of the contents of legislation presented in disciplines of pedagogical projects of undergraduate courses in Veterinary Medicine. Research, with a qualitative approach, was elaborated from the study of twenty pedagogical projects current in Brazilian federal universities. Some legislation contents are presented in disciplines oriented to the study of legal veterinary medicine, animal welfare, environmental protection, environment and wildlife, economic and social sciences, inspection and health of animal products and preventive veterinary medicine. It becomes necessary to create, in all Brazilian universities, a specific discipline for the systematic and comprehensive study of legislation applied to Veterinary Medicine.
