Personal opinion

Imagen
Hi classmates: In this post, I write about my personal opinion about some random actual themes or contingency themes, proposed by the teacher for this post. My opinion about military, men or women, is sucks and are unnecessary for actual societies. Military is a way to justified money that disappear every year and ends in the politicians and military pockets. Military is unnecessary because in case of war or something like that, it would a nuclear war, not a human war. Feminist movement was necessary, and deserves everyone's support. I like tatoos, I have some in different parts of my body and I think that I need several more. Animal testing is a horrible technique for prove the efficiency of chemical products for cosmetic and tobacco industry. Also, sometimes the food industry test new supplements coming for the agroindustry, used to farm some fruits and vegetables with a lot of supposed nutrients for the consumers, or the use of fertilizers and pesticides to farm in a shorte...

Changes to my study programme

Hi classmates.  In this post I want to write about some changes that I thick are necessary for the geography career in our faculty. Some changes that I think that helps to get better the study programme of geography can be: At first place, the inclusion of chemistry signature (or applied chemistry for geographers) in the curriculum, for learn about the different chemical compounds present in the environment. The same for oceanography, that is a interesting area related to the sea bottom geography and the interaction of the oceanic ecosystems. As for the faculty facilities, the lack of laboratories and the no experience in tools use like microscope or centrifuges can perjudice or conditions work opportunities, specially in lab work. Also, sometimes the lack of support to elaborate students projects is a disadvantage in comparison with others universities. Geography dosen't need use a great technology (at least in FAU) , but in the real world the use of technologies is very importa...

Postgraduate studies

Hi classmates: In this post I will tell you about the idea that I have for my future studies. My interest areas in geography are related with the physical environment and how this conditions the biological environment. For this, I think study a postgraduate course related to ecology or microbiology area, specially because my tesis project is focused in the study of a microscopical specie of microalgae, called diatoms. I would like to study a related course in Chile, but this species have not been very studied in Chile from the geography, only for biologists. But this microalgae can serve to evaluate parameters of interest for geographical studies about environment impact, water quality of rivers and lakes, and the paleoenviromental conditions of a specific territory. For this reason I think study a postgrade in Porto University or in Buenos Aires University, that teaches biological posgrade courses that admite geographers, and not only biologists as the most universities. The ...
