Abstract
A SEIR model for rabies between dogs with vaccination effect is formulated. The basic reproduction ratio for this model is derived using the Next Generation Matrix Method. Graphical solutions of the differential equations are produced using MATLAB. Stability analysis is performed and the impact of vaccination is analysed. This thesis was written in LaTeX and MATLAB was used for the programming. Appendix contains the MATLAB code used in simulating the model.
