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...

My opinion

What is your opinion about buying instead of adopting pets? In the world, especially in Chile, there are many abandoned animals in the streets. Everyday I see stray dogs and I feel very sad when I can not help them. I would love to have a very big house to adopt them all. Charlie is my dog ​​and he adopts it when you are only one month old, I think we propose a way of the ways we have to help these animals, especially cats and dogs. Pets that you can buy the plane parts wait before you own an owner. There are breeding places where the animals of race, is very sad. Adopting we help these things don't happen! What is your opinion about Immigration? Immigration, like many things in life, has its advantages and disadvantages. Having foreigners living in our country is very enriching, because they teach us a new culture and economically it is favorable, since they pay their taxes and consume goods and services . On the other hand it is unfavorable for some foreigners who are ...

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.

Nanotechnology in the food industry

The topic that I choose today to write in my blog is because is very practical and important inform us about the packaging and the technology that composes them. In the world tons of food end up in the trash, because maintaining the optimal properties of food is sometimes more complicated than we think. Therefore, the nanotechnology is called to reign in the packaging industry. This is very important because this technology provides active and intelligent packaging that helps us to conserve food for a longer time, it makes them safer and helps them to preserve their qualities. The Nanotechnology is one of the most promising and fastest growing technologies in our society and therefore in the food industry, since it allows the development of a new generation of intelligent and innovative products and processes. I didn't know before that it was an active packing or an intelligent label. This year I did a job on these packing for a subject of the University, there...
