Introducing the field of veterinary medicine
Veterinary medicine is one of the professional doctoral fields and its duration of study is 6 years, like pharmacy and dentistry. It is one of the fields of experimental subgroup 1 and its acceptance is like physiotherapy in the form of localization. It is one of the 4 fields of experimental sciences with the highest demand, so the native selection is 60% native to 40% non-native. Now there are about 12 public universities in the country that have a general doctorate in veterinary medicine and less than **** annually People get veterinary students through the entrance exam. Universities of Tehran, Shiraz, Ferdowsi, Mashhad, Tabriz, Lorestan University, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Razi Kermanshah, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Shahrekord, Urmia, Semnan and Zabul are now accepting veterinary professional doctoral students through the entrance exam. Guys, please be careful that the universities of medical sciences under the supervision of the Ministry of Health do not have a professional doctorate in veterinary medicine. For example, when we say veterinary medicine at the University of Tehran, we do not mean Tehran University of Medical Sciences, which has fields such as medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, etc., but rather the University of Tehran itself. . Or, for example, Ahvaz veterinary medicine, which we say does not mean Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, but Ahvaz Shahid Chamran University. That is, the veterinary students are not there in the same university where the students of medicine, dentistry, medicine and physiotherapy are, they are in another university. There are both day and night or the second shift of veterinary medicine in the universities, where they only have to pay tuition for the nights, and usually the university does not provide them with a government dormitory, unlike the day students. It is also one of the fields where the capacity of accepting girls and boys is not equal and gender does not have a special effect on the acceptance of this field.
Veterinary medicine, like other fields, the final acceptance rate depends on several factors, whether you mean the daily acceptance rate of veterinary medicine or the second round, a university wants a better rating every day. It doesn't matter if you are part of that university or not, we have 5 poles in the country, and those who are natives of that pole have a higher probability of being accepted into veterinary medicine than a non-native candidate, what region you are in and what quota you have is important. For admission to public universities, your regional rank and more importantly your subgroup 1 rank is important for admission to veterinary medicine. But in general, I want to say that in the last few years, the last ranks of veterinary medicine accepted by public universities were related to Shabana Zabul for the natives of that region, which could be accepted up to the ranks higher than 10,000 in Region 3. In the same way, higher level universities and daily schools need a better rating.
The 6-year course of studying veterinary medicine in the university has two stages: the first course has about 130 units, which is called pre-clinic, then they take a comprehensive pre-clinic exam, and those who pass enter the second course or the same clinical course. Usually, it is held twice a year, and someone who fails more than twice cannot continue the general veterinary doctorate. The second course is about 90 units, they call it the clinic where the internship, internship and thesis are in this stage. The specialized courses that veterinary students study in the university are mostly about animals, for example, animal genetics, zoology, animal nutrition, parasitology, animal health and so on. Poultry and ... by the way, veterinary medicine is not one of the 11 fields that have a mandatory plan. Veterinary medicine is not one of the fields of medical sciences universities at all
Labor market and income of veterinary medicine:
The labor market is different from place to place, but in general, how many years has it been since the number of veterinary graduates, both public universities and free universities, has increased, especially in big cities? It is almost saturated, but on the other hand, in some small cities, we still have a shortage of veterinarians. Veterinarians who work in the public sector receive almost certain salaries according to the civil service management law. In the private sector, like many other jobs, the incomes are different. For example, some veterinary clinics are in the cities, they have several years of work experience, their income is very good now, but some are in the outskirts of the city or even outside the city, although their work is much more difficult, but they do not have much income. It is very important that the clinic or veterinarian's office is in which city and where it is located in the city and how much experience it has.
Summary Veterinary Explanation:
The length of the study period is 6 years, and compared to paramedical undergraduate courses, you will finish your course two years later, but you will receive a professional doctorate. It is also possible to continue studying and you can participate in many fields for a specialized doctorate because it has many trends. Unlike other fields of medicine and paramedicine that deal with humans, in veterinary medicine your patients are not human and they cannot understand your language easily. You must be interested in working with animals. There is a possibility of getting infected with common diseases of animals and humans. But unlike fields like nursing, you have your own working time and you don't have night shifts. Unlike some fields that are very dependent on medical centers for employment and work, such as nursing and operating rooms, in veterinary medicine, it is possible to work independently, and if you open a pharmacy or a private practice, your income can increase a lot in some places. Of course, to establish such places, you must have work experience and your score will go up. As I said, there is no plan and it is not part of the fields of the University of Medical Sciences and is separate from the Ministry of Health. Now the private sector has a better situation to find a job than the public veterinary sector. Your interest, expertise and skill are very effective for your success and what specialized work you can do on which group of animals. In general, you should be light and heavy and consider according to your interests and circumstances whether this field is suitable for you to choose or not.
