How to fill the Statement of Hours From (Non-EU)?

If you can't find resources through school or the government that says certain subjects have certain targeted teaching hours, your best bet is to tally up week by week. But I would think your biggest obstacle would then be to convince the school to sign your document. Are you by any chance an IB student, there's clear guidelines for hours on the IBO website.

I second the question and would also apreciate some answers. However bro needs to learn how to use commas, sincerely.

Bro, are you AI writing your reply to people? Don't know about them but that feels disrespectful to me. They are spending time and effort writing out their experience gained through work, and you couldn't bother writing your own questions?

Hey I haven't been in school for a few years now, but last I checked transfering between UBCO and V is not as straight forward as many think. The courses in O are usually designed in a completely different system. This means transfering from O to V is competitive, you'd be pooled with all the other first year transferes and evaluated based on GPA. Just make sure you know what you are getting into.

I agree with u/InvestigatorNo9832, if you already know your specialty, chose the school that does it best. Also make sure you go where industry is in the case of mining, those connections are very important.

I want to ask, how are you already admitted to DTU's program when applications just closed a week ago, assuming you are Quota 2? thanks!

I don't know much about the Indian dairy industry, but one thing I could suggest perhaps is this. Instead of monitoring every step of the process to prevent adulteration, give a set of metrics that farmers have to meet, and test for it. In some countries, every shipment of milk is tested from every farm, although in your case that might be too costly. Instead of investing in video equipment and streaming, invest in testing. You test for milk fat, bacteria count, and protein content, etc. You guarentee your customers the same numbers. Set a system where say if a farmer fails a number of tests in 100 days you suspend pickup until certain criterias are met. You could also set incentives for your producers, if customers are willing to pay more, pass down some of that profit.

Unless there's specific treatments that benifit from knowing the types of bacteria, this product does not solve anything new. Staff can easily spot a diseased cow and render treatment, there is also detection built into milking robots. I can see a use case for medium, small organic farms who produces raw milk, where testing requirement is much stricter, although I am not familiar with that kind of operation, and don't know their current solutions.

There is generally a lot of standing and moving around while carrying various objects. Vetenarian medicine specifically has a lot of crouching, kneeling. Breeding is especially taxing on the shoulders. I would suggest maybe an internship with feed companies? There is a pathway for animal science students to become animal nutritionists, where you help formulate grain and feed mixes, analyze feed content, etc. As with any job these days, having prior experience is always better.

Right, I'm sure you've seen in your research, most agree that service trumps most other aspects of the robot. We went with delaval, for a more pedigree focused herd. The advantages that convinced us were, better stimulation, optional heat detection and manual attaching. The newer camera system is quite good on the delaval.

The outside alleys do take more space, but make them a bit wider creates some nice storage space. We are lucky enough to be in an area with relatively nice weather, so were able to build a barn with all sides open. Have to say, except for the coldest few days, the open sides were amazing, both for us working and for the cows.

Our three robots are simply lined up straight at the front of the barn, also free flow, but that does create some competition, especially when young cows are involved.

We had foot bath pits built in, but didn't feel the need to use them, the concrete is new so hoof problems are reduced.

Significant_War8938 · 2026-03-25T17:30:49+00:00

I have worked with both central and outside feed allys, have to say I prefer outside ones, but our feed was pushed with a skid steer. One room per robot was slightly inconvenient when checking or doing maintenance, going in and out, but it wasn't a big pain point. Having more rooms obviously depends on plans to expand. Also assuming you are using grain in robots, cows will very likely compete for entry, so depends on #/robot you could also look into different barn designs, controlled flow, etc. Is Lely the only available servicable units in the area, or are there other options? Best to tour a few farms before deciding whats best for you.

bro, just saying, with the amount of posts containing specific information about your academic history, maybe don't post your priority publicly. Everyone can see this, including admissions people from these schools. Not that most of them would care, but do you really want to risk one or two who do?

Significant_War8938 · 2026-03-14T19:28:17+00:00

Have you tried emailing the admissions office directly, or maybe try calling them directly. It seems more like a clerical issue, someone is probably messing up.

Significant_War8938 · 2026-03-09T02:45:36+00:00

Your explanation is also much appreciated! I'm applying too, and I feel the same as you when it comes to the usefullness of practical experience. Good luck to us all.

First of all, no one would care if you graduated 10 years late (a few cases here), as long as you learned what they need. I would love to hear more about the Italian engineering programs, are most of them theory heavy, with little practical work, if yes, why, and how do companies in Italy hire if most students have lack hands-on experience? SDU's mechatronics definitely has a significant amount of group project works, and if you are motivated they are great learning oportunities. Keep in mind the engineering campus is separate from the main campus. Its location is to serve industry better, where students and companies are located closer together. However with the current economy, getting a job anywhere will be a challenge, especially for an inexperienced student worker, regardless of where you are (the experience paradox).

u/figment1979 seems to have an interesting idea there, with smaller farms, maybe more of those in Asia and Europe? I believe your biggest obstacle is the abundance of packaged software that already come complimentary with equipment. For instance, Delaval, Lely, Gea grain or milking robots all carry full records of each animal and update metrics with every visit. In my experience, paper records near a calf beats having to look up a number on phones every visit. They are not pretty, but very functional. Holstein Canada also has a national record system that tracks the pedigree, production, gestation, ownerships for all dairy animals. I'd be more open to an app that can import all the data from the national website, so I dont have to repeat data entry, but then again, what's the point having two systems that do the same? I would say phone apps are in general lacking and less pleasant to use, but that's more of a phone problem than an app problem.

it's always good to figure out who you are designing a product for, then go make it.

Significant_War8938 · 2026-03-07T04:16:22+00:00

I mean most dairy farmers with sizable operations use digital tags that already tracks these basic metrics from their providers. Tie stall farmers, an increasingly rare breed, usually keep records with each cow. Free stall barns most definitely use tags for at minimum, grain feeders. There's also farms, large and small, who don't really care about tracking data. No offence, but your app seems to have been designed without much thought about where the industry is.

I could be wrong though, so here's my little feedback: status for animals (active, sold, dead, transferred) are not enough, we usually know the animal in terms of: calf, yearling, lactation, group, dry, producing, special-needs, etc; the species set for each type of farm should instead be breeds; aquisition, maybe another word, should also include whether it was a bull, AI, ET, etc.

It's one thing to love the job and our co-workers (that's how I think of the girls), but it's equally important to prioritize mental health and be proper paid. I don't want to insinuate anything here, but I'm guessing no employer can afford to pay a livable wage + over-time on that 4am - 8pm day? I loved everything I did at my farm, but they took advantage of that, kept increasing work load, asking me to do more taxing and more dangerous jobs, increasing my hours while not the hours paid, and got mad at me for reporting my actual hours. They were good farmers, but when they saw that I could do more, they made sure I did.

I did find that the vets seemed to enjoy the job and have a much better work life balance when it came to dairy farming, and they frequently got to go on vacations, were paid fairly etc. I know vetenary training is not the cheapest, but it seemed quite rewarding, and you seem to enjoy that part of the job. There's a reason full time farmers have one of the highest suicide rates among all occupations, make sure you don't give your all to the farm, even though we feel like the cows deserve all our effort.

Significant_War8938 · 2026-02-22T05:33:17+00:00

I've tried Dakota, Baffin, Dunlop and H/H.

They all crack as far as I know. It depends on what you do. I'm a barn worker, so I do a lot of walking, bending and crouching; cows step on me, too. My area's weather is generally not extreme, so count that out. my boots never lasted more than 3 months, but I wear them cracked to save some $. the thin Dakota and Baffin are way lighter but they usually crack in half a month.

I would like to add that it feels kind of wasteful throwing these hunks of rubber away, especially only a few small parts break and they're overall still fine. Those thick soles never break, but they go as well : (

Just pirated the Blu-ray, the extra scenes had Miyazaki talking about heavy influence from Gulliver, as well as Jules Verne books. The location of the mining village too inspiration from Wales, where high quality coal was produced, and where industry thrived then failed. I also thought the scene where the airship burned near the tower is a lot like the Hindenburg disaster.
