Changes to my study program

The study program of Social Work has things that I like it but I would change some classes. The curriculum of social work at Universidad de Chile is different when we compare with other universities, here the relationship between theory and praxis is the focus but in this two years we have not had any practice. This program had many courses about philosophy, political theory, contemporary theory, political economy, among other,  that are necessary to the praxis, but in these first years we don't have classes that take us closer.  From the third year we will approach the job that we will make in the future as social workers, but this method doesn´t allow us to understand the program in these two years where you decide if you like the profession or not.

Opinion

What is your opinion about animal testing? I am against animal testing in the industry. This is often known in the cosmetic industry but in other industry this method is used like clean products, stationery items (pencils, glues), chemical for clothes, among others.

I think that this dispute to legalizing marijuana is for bad reputation that large companies give to it because of the benefits of consume. What is your opinion about owning an exotic pe...

Woww This topic is interesting because I usually thinking about it in the end of semester (like now he he he). I used to say that if I won the lottery I would leave the university to travel or just relax but I wouldn´t do that because I like the program of Social Work.  If I won the lottery, first, I would pay the university (I pay the studies bolster with a credit) and also I would pay the university of my sister and brother (they studied with credit and now they must pay).  Secondly, I would travel with my family on vacations for Chile. We have planned to visit the Atacama desert and Iquique, and if I won the lottery, the cost of the travel it wouldn't be a problem. Also, I would like to know Mexico and Colombia, and study at a University of these countries.  Thirdly, I would buy a house to my parents and I would help my mum with her project about a Hospital School. She tried to do this project a few years ago and she couldn't do it. Finally, I woul...
