  Hi everyone! As you may know I study Natural Renewable Resources Eengineering, and today I’m going to talk about the changes that I would make to my career program. The first time I read the curriculum I thought it was amazing, except for all the math and physics in it. But to be honest, I’m not sure that I’m completely satisfied right now. First, when you think about a career like mine, you imagine that you would have many field trips, but since I started college, I’ve only had about three. So, I think that is urgent to change that, I know that it’s hard to do it right now because of the pandemic, but it’s something to discuss. Second, when you read the subjects of the curriculum, there is an absence of sea-related subjects. Which I think it’s serious because the sea is one of the most important natural resources due to the many ecosystem services that provides and is a key to understand the climate change. In addition to this, I would take subjects like numeric calculus and p...

  Hi everyone, today I’m going to talk about a time that I would like to go in the future. To be honest, I’m not sure if I want to know what’s going to happen in the future. I’m the kind of person that believes in destiny, so I’m not crazy about knowing it. This is also because I’m very attached to my family, so I don’t think that I’m ready to know if something bad is gonna happened. Undoubtedly the climate change, the drought and all the bad prognoses have encouraged me to try to live my best life focused in the present and enjoy every moment of it even when I have bad days (I’ve learned with the passage of time that a bad day is not the end of the world). Believe it or not, with this way of thinking I still have goals and dreams, it’s just that I’m more flexible with time. Because sometimes I’m not able to achieve a goal when I would want to do it, but that doesn’t mean that I’ll never be able to reach it. As a rule, I always tell myself when I’m in a bad moment in my life th...

  When I was in my first’s years of high school, I was convinced that I wanted to study law, which is pretty funny because I always feel like I’m about to cry when I’m arguing. Well, despite the crying thing, back at that time I already knew that I wanted a career related to the environment. So, I had to start looking for new careers, and that’s when I found Natural Renewable Resources Engineering. When I read the curriculum for the first time I fell in love, it was exactly what I was looking for, except for one thing: ocean conservation. I think that that was the only doubt I had with this career, because my dream job is working in the sea. Maybe doing research or helping in the conservation of different species of algae. To be more specific, protect the Chilean kelp forest. I’m sure that right now you’ll be thinking why I didn’t study marine biology. I’m not quite sure yet, but it’s probably because I like the fact that I have other possibilities in case that at some point I ch...
