Changes to my study programme

Hi, today I’m going to talk about some changes that I think that are important for mi actual career.
I study anthropology and there are many things that works really bad. The first thing is that we have something called the “basic cycle”, this are the two first years of career, are years of introduction of anthropology in order to guide you in your later  specialization decision (social anthropology, archaeology of physic anthropology). I think that this two first years subject doesn’t help in anything, are to general and you don’t realize about the real meaning of study anthropology. Also in social anthropology are many subject that doesn’t work for my personal interesting, so I would try to make more elective subjects that goes according with the personal interesting of each person. In the same way I’m really interesting in issues relating to esthetic, visual arts, anthropology, and how these are connected… we have some subject relating with the visual thing but it’s to vague, the information and the capacitation for this is really basic so I feel that I’m not learning anything, the teacher is not good… so I would try to make a couple of subject  of this topics with good teachers, and with some technology to make some visual material. That is other thing, I think that the focus of the career it’s to theoretical, but there are many other ways of expression that we can use to realize about social problems, or whatever.
All that I say before was a personal thing, but in general terms I think that the worst thing of the career is a problem that is happening right now for me, the degree process. It is really long and you have to pass many proves to approve. First you have to finish all the subjects, then you have to do the “investigation studio 1”, then the “memory studio 1”, then the “memory studio 2”, at the same time you have to do the practice and finally the thesis, that it could take you many time, so at least you have to study in the university 7 years. I think it’s many time and I don’t really want to stay longer here so I don’t know what to do. So I try to modify that, because is the really hell.
Well, is that for today.
Bye

Postgraduate course.


Hi, today I’m going to talk about of my future studies after finish the university, the postgraduate courses.
Actually, I’m really confused about my future in the studies terms. I’am not sure if I’m going to study more. I feel that at the moment I spend a lot of time studying in the university and I want to do other kind of things. My plan is to finish all my courses the next semester, or in the worst case at the end of the year (next year) and then I want to take a break of the academic thing. Maybe travel, or do things that I want, maybe work in something. I’m not sure about anything.
However, I think that in the future… maybe in five more years or close to that I might like to take a master in visual antropologhy. I realize a time ago that I can postulate to any master without the tesis, only with the licenciature in antropologhy, so the plan is that.
I hope to do that master in other country, I don’t know where, but I know about some places in Europe, specifically some universities in Berlin, Barcelona and Sarajevo, the best is the last one, and some of the teachers of that place are like my actual favorites movie directors, so it would be great to do the course in Sarajevo.

Well, that is all for today.
Bye.
