Waterman Dairy Internship

 

The Ohio State Waterman Dairy is looking for students interested in operating farm equipment and working with dairy cattle. Paid positions are open for Spring 2021 employment and can fulfill internship requirements.

The OSU Waterman Dairy has 100 registered Jerseys in milk and approximately 165 replacement heifers. The farm consists of 120 crop acres plus 45 acres of pasture. Student employees with equipment experience are engaged in the cropping and equipment maintenance aspect of the farm as well as routine chores.

Besides general dairy chores, other opportunities can be tailored to fit internship requirements or employee interests. Students are responsible for 2 or 3 chores a week (3:45am/pm until approx. 7:00am/pm) and every other weekend. Work hours are flexible outside of chore shifts and the farm is located within a mile of campus to allow a convenient commute between or after classes.
