2. 科目與學業(會讀啲咩course、placement 安排)
基本上同medic相似,一樣要讀diseases, anatomy, clinical skills,但同時會focus好多係animal handling, animal welfare等等
Year 1-2: animal husbandry, animal welfare, food safety, pre-clinical sciences and biomedical sciences + 十二個禮拜暑期實習 (dog, cat, chicken, pig, cattle, fish, laboratory animals, etc., 由學校安排)
Year 3-6: extensive clinical training and controlling infectious diseases + 26 個禮拜暑期實習 + 3 個學期嘅 clinical rotations

3.印象深刻既課程/活動
Supposed BVM Year 1最開心應該係去Cornell Vet School (全球首屈一指嘅獸醫學院) 做summer placement :,) 但大家都知,今年受COVID-19影響,基本上係無可能咁樣飛過去實習,所以就推左去year2。但我之所以話呢個應該係year1最正嘅活動,除左因為Cornell果邊應該有好多設施同動物比我地去學習,仲係因為我地過去嘅學費、機票錢、住宿費同生活費基本上都係學校包Q_Q就算屋企無咩錢都可以開開心心去交流、見識下,呢個真心好好。
至於依家喺香港做placement其實都學到好多野,見到呢個世界原來仲有好多愛動物嘅人,例如shelter嘅staff、義工,原來佢哋一直都默默耕耘,記住每隻貓狗嘅健康問題、每日不辭勞苦照顧健康出左問題嘅動物,同時都努力比佢哋感受愛,其實一切都好唔容易,重點係好多shelters都係長期依賴義工幫手,而呢d義工係幾乎完全無benefits,一切付出都係為左d無家可歸嘅動物可以健康快樂。但同時其實都好感慨,見到好多不公同令人失望嘅事發生。我地努力付出嘅同時,原來仲有好多人支持無良breeders、好多人無考慮清楚就購買寵物,佢哋身體一出毛病就棄養,甚至係養到晚年多病痛先黎棄養,要佢地失去至親摯愛、喺shelter渡過餘生。至於food animals就活得更冇尊嚴: 活生生俾人掟死嘅有、活埋喺屍體堆嘅都有。但正正係因為見到呢d畫面,我先明白點解我地要更加努力做好本分,同對外做多d宣傳,令香港嘅動物權益多d人關注。
4.大學生活
基本上就係一個字: 忙。
BVM pre-clin最主要就係= 多野背+多assignments+多projects/presentations+多field trips。Year 1 sem 2一個sem做assignments都打左四五萬字 (11 assignments and 6 major quizzes) ? 雖然好大部份係因為reg左個伏GE但本身呢科真係要做好多assignments同presentations。 以前mbbs真係冇咁誇張,但都開心嘅尤其每次出field都係好獨特嘅體驗好多野唔係睇書可以學到真正接觸動物往往感受都好唔同。
5.未來出路
理論上會有AVBC同RCVS嘅international accreditation (要等第一個cohort grad先可以100% firm)。畢業之後可以再讀專科做farm vet, exotic animal vet, equine vet, fish vet, etc.或者做研究/food production and food safety, etc.
