university curriculum
When I was choosing a university and career, I remember that I chose psychology at the University of Chile because I really liked the curriculum, that is, the subjects included in the curriculum.
That has not changed much, I like that the career begins with subjects that are transversal to the social sciences, and that as the years go by it becomes more and more specialized.
Psychology is very broad, so I like that the curriculum of the career includes so many subjects, because it tries to teach us about all areas, giving us the possibility to choose the one we like the most. We "specialize" later in the sixth semester of the course, since we only have elective courses.
I would make changes to the elective courses, because there are so few places that people rarely take the courses they really want, which is a big problem.I would also add more internships, because in the end a psychologist works helping and accompanying people, and it is difficult to think how to transfer all the theory learned to the practical work of helping people, regardless of the area in which they work.
I think that the length of the course is adequate. About the teaching methods, I think they are correct, however, I also think that more work should be done in practice in the same classes, putting situations in which we have to put into practice the theory.
I can't say much about the facilities of the faculty because I don't know it.
Hi, I would also make changes to the electives.
ResponderEliminarHi, I agree, I think it's very important to have more practices or internships to develop social skills that theory can't teach us.
