Çalışmanın amacı, İstanbul Üniversitesi-Cerrahpaşa Veteriner Fakültesi öğrencilerinin gelecekteki meslek tercihlerinin dağılımını ve bu dağılımı etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir. Veriler, 2015 ve 2021 yıllarında ankete yanıt veren 3., 4. ve 5. sınıfta okuyan 327 ve 347 öğrenciden yüz yüze anket yoluyla toplanmıştır. Anket iki bölümden oluşmaktadır: Birinci bölümde öğrencilerin cinsiyeti, sınıfı, doğum yeri, not ortalamaları ve ailelerinin gelir düzeyleri; ikinci bölümde ise veteriner hekim olarak aylık gelir beklentileri, mezuniyetten sonra çalışmak istedikleri alan ve çalışma koşullarına ilişkin beklentileri sorgulanmıştır. Cinsiyetin her iki yılda da öğrencilerin kariyer tercihleri üzerine oldukça anlamlı bir etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir (P<0.001). Kız öğrencilerin her iki yılda da ilk tercihleri küçük hayvan hayvan kliniği iken, erkek öğrencilerin ilk tercihi 2015 yılında çiftlik hayvanı pratiği, 2021 yılında ise küçük hayvan kliniği olmuştur. Aylık aile geliri öğrencilerin kariyer seçimlerini 2015 yılında önemli ölçüde etkilerken 2021 yılında etkilememiştir. Aylık aile geliri 685 ABD dolarının altında olan öğrencilerin %39.4'ünün çiftlik hayvanı pratiğini tercih ettiği görülmektedir. Aile geliri 1601-2050 ABD doları olan öğrencilerin
%51.1'i küçük hayvan kliniklerinde çalışmayı tercih etmektedir. Çalışma bulguları, veterinerlik öğrencilerinin kariyer planlarını şekillendirmede cinsiyet, doğum yeri ve aylık aile geliri etkilerinin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Çiftlik hayvanı pratiğine olan tercihte belirgin bir azalma ve küçük hayvan pratiğinde ise artış olduğu da görülmüştür.

The objective was to determine the distribution of future carrier preferences of Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Veterinary Faculty students and the factors affecting this distribution. Data were collected via face-to-face questionnaires from 327 and 347 students who were in their 3rd, 4th, and 5th year and who responded to the survey in 2015 and 2021. The questionnaire consists of two parts: in the first part, students' gender, class, place of birth, grade point averages and income levels of their families. In the second part, the field they want to work in after graduation, their expectations regarding working conditions, and their monthly income were questioned. Gender has a highly significant effect on students' career choices in both years (P<0.001). While the first choice of female students in both years was the companion animal clinic, the first choice of male students was the farm animal practice in 2015 and the companion animal clinic in 2021. Monthly family income significantly affected student career choices in 2015 while not in 2021. It is seen that 39.4% of the students whose monthly family income is below 685 USD preferred farm animal practice. In comparison, 51.1% of students whose family income is 1601-2050 USD prefer to work in companion animal clinics. The study’s findings of the study highlight the importance of gender, hometown and monthly family income considerations in shaping the career plans of veterinary students. There was also an apparent decrease in preference for farm animal practice and an increase in companion animal practice.
