My Postgraduate Studies

Hi everyone!

Since I entered to university I thought that it will be a good idea to take postgrade studies, because nowadays, to be competitive in any labour field you need an especialization and a PhD will certainly give me that. But I'm also convinced that taking a job in what you studied for is the only real experience and competitivity that you will learn (There are things that are not written in books that only experience in work will sum to your knowledge).

With all that said, I think that if I take a PhD, it'll probabily in an area which I like in Political Science. I like topics like National Defense, Administrative Decentralization, Advertising and Propaganda and International Relations. 

I like national defense because since I was a little boy I have been interested on military topics and I think that is important, specially in this days, to develop civilian knowldge and to relate with politics and citizenship this area. I'm interested in administrative decentralization, because I have lived in many cities and regions of Chile and I think that is important to advance in this political process and I could help with this (Also because I would like to live in Temuco when I get my degree). Lately, I've been thinking in Advertising and Propaganda because I would like to advise in political campaigns and having an assessment business (I also like to make memes). My final option is geting a PhD in International Relations, because is an interestig topic since I remember studying from books and internet the culture and history of almost every country in the world. 

Finally, It is a really good idea to have a Phd, but is also a problem to pay for it, because I will probabily start working when I finish university and it will pass a some time until I get a good salary to pay this. Only time and work will say if I will take this option.

Bye!

    Hi Nicolás! your post is really interesting, it's true that having a job is what gives you a lot more of experiences, but i also think that postgrades gives you an extra especialization, so fundamental to some future jobs. See you in class!

    Hello Nicolás! I´m agree with you and your post, having a job it´s a good source of knowledge and skills, and maybe it would be better work before to take postgraduate studies.
    See you in class!

    I agree that today it is very difficult to do a doctorate because of the economic costs and it saddens me that people have the ability but not the money

English Classes

 I like english a lot, since I was a little boy. I like to learn other languages and I did quite good at school in this subjects. Hopefuly I got a good english base before enter to University, so the english classes have been quite easy and funny for me. I think that it has been a good class to learn basic vocabulary in english.  The use of blogs has been an interesting experience, because I hadn't made one in my life. It is very useful to improve my english writing and it's really funny. Also interact with my friends make it better! I think that I probabily have to improve some grammar skills of my english and also the use of some words, like technical terms or vocabulary terms that I hadn't used in my life. To get a better english the only things that I could do will be read more articles and news, watch more videos and movies and trying to speak more english.  I use a lot my english skills, like watching videos and TV shows almost everyday. I also have to read, sometimes

A place that I would like to visit

Since I was a little boy, I have been moving across Chile and even lived in Brazil for a year. I think that is part of my lifestyle traveling from one place to another, I like it!  Sometimes I imagine and dream how other places looks like, how nice people is and the kind of culture that they have. I've thought in countries like Japan, China, Russia and the U.S. but a country that I would like to visit is Germany.  Deutschland  (name of the Germany in german), is a country in the heart of Europe, sharing borders with countries like France, Switzerland, Poland and Denmark. It has a population of 83 million, it is very industrialized and have a lot of culture. Historically, it is a very interesting place to visit, because it has been an important center of the western civilization, like in the medieval ages, the Prussian Empire, the two world wars and even in the Cold War it was split in two (East and West Germany). Its rich history makes me want to go, because I love history.

My Future Job

 When I was 14 I was very clear abou what do I want to study: Political Science. So in High School I only prepared to give a great PSU (entrance test to university), even I didn't know which university do I wanted to go (I only thought in the UDP at that time). But the final day where they gave us the results I figured what to do: enter to study at U. de Chile and of course, the new career of Political Science.  I've never questioned myself in which area I would like to work, I'm really not interested in thinking about that even today. I have to figure it out. But what really know, is that I like everything or every work that is related to politics, because since I was really joung I had like this topic and is a way of life for me.  Probably I would like to work in the government, because It's a stable career and think that I can make changes from there. I like topics of National Defense, International Relations, Internal Affairs or even the regional Government, It woul
