Course unit content
The traineeship in Animal Food Inspection is a practical activity, practiced in rooms and laboratories of the Department of Veterinary Science as well as in external Italian or foreign structures, specially arranged according to the University procedures and chosen by the students on the basis of their own interests. These external structures are represented by the ASL (local public veterinary services, area B – Inspection of food of animal origin), the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Lombardia e dell’Emilia-Romagna (IZSLER) and the regional Fish Market of the ATC (local public veterinary service) of Milan. On the basis of these premises, there is no reference program, since the activities are diversified on the basis of the structures to which the students access. The activities will however be focused on the analysis and management of the production processes of the animal food supply chains, as well as to the official controls of the food hygiene sector.
