Blog 7: Changes to study program

Imagen
  Hello everyone! In this chance I am going to write about my actual career and if I would like to change something.  Firstly, I am in fourth semester of Geography career, I entered university when the Covid-19 pandemic began, so I do not have experiment the “university life” yet, is this why I think that I could not propose changes for the career or the faculty ‘cause I think that I know just a part of everything that what means be in the university.  In second place, I can say that in my opinion my career is very complete, because it approaches so many topics that geography is on, that we can choose an area which we want to specialize in in the future. Thinking better, there is a thing that I would like to change, really it is not a change, it is just a comment, I would like to have more Cartography classes ‘cause we just have it in the first semester and I really liked it. If I think about the methods of teaching I think it is good considering that the classes are virt...

Blog 6: Time travel

Hi everyone, today's topic is time travel, and the first thing that comes to my mind is the movie Interstellar, I know that the theme of the movie is not exactly time travel, but I focus on how complicated it is. space-time that I can't imagine people traveling to the future or the past. Now opening my imagination a lot and assuming that time travel is possible, I would like to travel to the future, I do not know exactly in what year, but I would like to see if human beings can take care of the planet or if the planet transforms itself into a futuristic place, like the cities that appear in the movies, where everything is highly technological. However, I would also like to travel back in time and see how the dinosaurs became extinct hahah . I would also be interested to travel to the past in time when the biggest artists Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo lived, ‘cause their incredible works attract my attention and so I could meet them and see the process of their works. Think...

Blog 5: My future job

  Hello everyone, in this blog I have to talk about my future work. First, at the moment I am studying geography, but I am applying for a career change to anthropology and my idea is to specialize in archeology. I made this decision because I realize that my dream job is working on the discovery of archaeological remains, so now I have to wait for my response to the career change. Since I was little, I have liked outdoor works and activities and in this job I imagine myself traveling a lot and discovering archeological remains in the south of Chile and around the world. If someone doesn’t know what is for, with these discoveries we could know more about the communities who lived in those places years before us. Also I would love to work in different countries and places... like the desert! Respect to the salary, archeologists are very well paid but this isn’t the main importance for me, I just think it is a very interesting and fun job.  I am not studying this career yet, but ...

Blog 4: My profession

Hi!  In this blog I'm going to talk about my future profession. In this moment I’m studying geography and it’s something that englobe so many things in the life, when someone hear about this, probably think in landscapes or maps, but it’s more than that because geography is in the territorial planification, in how the people are distributed in the territory, in the territorial discrimination, in how some landcapes are like we see now, and explains the why of some caractheristics in landcapes, and so much more. The versatility of this career is why I chose it and the number of areas that I can choose from and specialize in.  Some benefits that I think at this moment is that if I chose the side of physical geography, I can work out of an office most of the time, I can constantly work on the ground. In the case that I chose the side of human geography, I can work on the ground too but knowing the reality of some people who are in difficult situations, territorially speaking. I th...
