Hello!
Like I have told you before I am studying archaeology at the University of Chile. Even when I like the career that I chose there are some things that I would like to change or put new things. Regarding to the subjects that I have to study in this career we have four main themes which are the prehistory of Chile, laboratory techniques, field techniques and archaeological theory. Also among this subjects we have complementary themes that we can choose. The length of this career is five years and we have a lot of workload because in every subject you have to be constantly reading a lot of texts or books and we have to do practical field work. One of the problems that we have in this career besides the workload are the faculty facilities because we don’t have many laboratories and our classmates from physical anthropology also need to use them. Regarding to the teaching methods, even when we have subjects about field techniques we don’t have many practical work so that’s another problem we have on the career. Also about the technology, as archaeologist we have to use a lot of implements as GPS, microscopes, computers and programs like Google Earth but there are not enough to everybody. Even when we have a lot of things to improve, we can learn a lot of things.
See you!
