Study programme

Imagen
  Currently my program of studies has been in constant modification because I had about 40 credits more in comparison with the other careers that have 300 credits. The school has had to reduce the number of credits, therefore the hours of study have had to be reduced, subjects have been eliminated and the contents of the classes are now more generalized. But the faculty still needs some changes. Firstly, it should change some subjects for others more important for the career or eliminate subjects to add more hours to more important subjects, for example, eliminate "taller de liderazgo" and increase the working hours of field practices because the practices are the best opportunities to learn more. Secondly, the teaching methodology of the professors should be better supervised, since there are professors who are able to transmit their knowledge and what they want to teach very well, but there are professors who do not achieve this and harm the students, since they do not ...

Time travel to the past

Imagen
  I would like to travel back in time, especially to the 19th century or the Victorian age in England, I would like to be part of the aristocracy for a few days, as I like to read a lot about it. I find it interesting even though it was a difficult life especially for women. I would like to be able to travel by carriage or on horseback, wear the dresses they used in those days, receive the handwritten invitations to attend a ball, obviously I would like to learn to dance and know how the dances were for presentation in society. Since there wasn't much technology in those days, there was plenty of time to spend on other things, I would spend hours reading, go for long walks, have a garden to maintain, invite friends over for tea and attend a Victorian picnic. I know it seems boring, but I would like to live it for a few days, the small details are the ones I like, to be able to buy a dress, or have it made to my size, to be able to share more time with people, is something that ...

My dream job

Imagen
  I am studying forestry engineering and I would like to work at Conaf, whose main function is to manage the forestry policy of Chile. I would like to work in a reserve or national park in order to conserve and restore native forests. I would be far from my home since it is a very remote place, it is in Alto Bio Bio, it is in the mountain range, I would have to go in a 4x4 car since the road is complicated and in winter it is worse because of the snow and rain.  I imagine it as a quiet job, since it's miles away from civilizations, just me and nature, plus a couple of co-workers. To work in a reserve or park, you would have to know how to plan, program, direct, manage and administer, and you would also have to know about ecology and environmental impact and forest protection. I would like to earn enough to live well and to be able to travel, the advantages are that I like what I am studying, everything related to conservation and restoration and the disadvantage is that the co...
