This is a rotation in one of the important livestock industries of Australia studied from the viewpoint of a veterinarian working in a consultancy, business, advisory or regulatory role, rather than a conventional veterinary practice role. Students will complete a 3 week rotation with a veterinarian working as a species specialist or expert in the pig, poultry or aquaculture industries, either in private practice or as an employee of a company or other such body, or with a veterinarian working in consultancy practice serving one of those industries or the sheep, beef or dairy cattle industries, or with a veterinarian working in the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA), or Animal Health Industries.
The rotation can also be performed by repeating Clinical Rotation 1, 2 or 3 (Equine, Small Animal or Dairy Cattle Practice) and, if so, students are expected to demonstrate advanced levels of skills and knowledge in those rotations to achieve satisfactory grades.
Students may not repeat any one of these rotations more than once in their course.
