Psychology career

Hello everyone. 

Today I want to talk about my career. For people who don't know, I study psychology at the Universidad de Chile. However, Instead of just talking about what the university has, I will also talk about what is missing in the race and the changes that would make it.

The career has a basic initial cycle where we learn everything that we should supposedly know as a basis regarding the social sciences, specifically psychology. But, I think there are some obsolete or not very relevant subjects, compared to other subjects what should we know, for example gender perspective. It is from the specialization cycle that just we can have gender perspective subjects, those that are available very recently.

The career is thought for five years, but, the academic load of the last year is much, reason why students take more than five years, which is a big problem considering the costs of education. I would reformulate the program to make the last year easier.

Another thing that I would modify is the infrastructure. They are already doing it but in a way contrary to how I would because instead of putting more green areas, that are very few, they are taking out the ones we have.

I don’t have much to say about technology and about teaching methods… Well, we have all kinds of methodologies; these depend a lot on the teacher. There are some archaic and others very entertaining where we sit in a circle and talk about the subject, without the teacher-student power relationship.

Goodbye everyone.
