Changes to my study programme



I have been studying food engineering at the University of Chile for two years. The carrer lasts for 11 semesters and each semester has 7 subjects, therefore, the academic load is quite. The subjects are related to each other, but even so they are different and you have to study and work extra. 
The subjects are very varied, I have subjects of physics, biology and oral and written communication,
but in my career the most important subjects are those related to chemistry and mathematics. Unfortunately I haven't seen many subjects that relate to my career yet. The first year I had a subject called Introduction to Food Engineering, but I feel that it was not enough. I would like that it's to be more motivational and practical. My faculty has different buildings, but these buildings aren’t very functional. There are places to eat, but unfortunately not enough for everyone, I think it would be a good idea to have a casino and more
microwave.
The places to study are small, there are study rooms, but they are always occupied. The library has few tables and few computers, the environment doesn’t help much to the concentration sometimes, so you can’t always study at the university.
Sometimes I should go to the dental faculty library, since it is more comfortable. In laboratories, the equipment that is used often harms work, is not in good condition, this is very unfortunate, because it harms learning. I think it is very important to solve these problems, so that students learn in a good way.


Finally I would like to talk about the teaching methods in our faculty, because of few are the teachers who studied pedagogy and that in many occasions makes learning difficult and the subject is not understood, so we should ask for help from the assistants. There are classes that lack motivation and are very boring...

I hope that this someday change...

  1. I also think that our subject of Introduction to Food Engineering should change

Getting to know each other

Hello, my name is Francisca Javiera Adriana,  I am twenty years old and I  live in Santiago of Chile with my parents and Charlie "my brother dog".  I studied for thirteen years in the Boston college school and since two years ago I studying Food engineering in the university of Chile. I love to know about diferents kind of aliments, their properties and benefits for  to apply them in daily life, but I have a lot hobbies too. I like go to the cinema with my boyfriend, dance and drink with my friends the weekend, go to hill to walk and take photos, swim in the lake, sing in the rain and see stars in the south of Chile. There are very things i will like do and that i have been unable to do, for example know the world and finish my studies.

Why did you choose this career?

When I was 8 years my dream job was   to be a singer, but when I turned 13 years I realized that my dream wasn't very realistic and that maybe nerver woud be. During my stay in the secundary school I thought in the posibilities that I had. By then I wanted to study forensic medicine, commercial engineering or nutrition. The days before taking the PSU I decided what to study... My choice was to study "food engineering" a  little know  career , but that met many of my interests. Now I am in my second year studing to become a food engineer, I am vey excited, i love knowing things about food industry, but regrettably I dont have specific classes of my career yet. I hope to work in the administration area, because i would like to be manager in the food industry.

Beautiful minds ...

Curious minds that go against the thinking of ordinary people, wanting to find answers to multiple questions throughout their lives... Sthephen William Hawking Born January 8, 1942 in the city of Oxford in the United Kingdom. he studied throughout his life to become a theoretical physicist, astrophysicist, cosmologist and British scientific popularizer, who was director of research at the Center for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge. Sthephen died on March 14 this year. My admiration for this scientist goes beyond his achievements in science, because his youth was marked by a degenerative disease, which took away the voice and mobility of his muscles. Sthephen had the ability and strength to cope, he didn't abandon his passion for science, published important works on spacetime or general relativity, he knew love twice and his characteristic sense of humor, left funny and admirable phrases like: "We are just an advanced race of monkeys on a
