CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME

Hi everyone, in this blog I will talk to you about some changes I would make in the Political Science syllabus, a course I am currently studying. But first, it is necessary to point out that this career began to be taught at the University of Chile just three years ago. Therefore, the existence of problems in the curriculum is probable.

Thus, we noticed with several classmates that Comparative Politics II, which we took in the third semester, was the same as Comparative Politics I, without going much deeper into the subject. In addition, that semester was complicated, because the curriculum included several demanding courses, which meant that we were full of assignments, each one more complicated than the previous one. But, in general, the workload of the course is fine, since most of them are group work.

Regarding the teaching methods, I think they are the right ones, being such a theoretical career, it is complicated to look for more "practical teaching" spaces, but, even so, we have tried from the beginning to get into what we will do later on.

Finally, as for the infrastructure, it is obvious that it has become too small for all those who study there, if before, when there was only the career of Public Administration, it was already said that the building should be renovated (enlarged), now with two careers a change is urgent for the faculty (institute actually). At least that's what I know, since I have never been there hahaha.
