Changes to my study programme

My career among the years past, have changed, in what we call curricular innovation, specifically the year 2016, it started, after years of planning and evaluation. the idea of this change was bring a fresh air to the career and to update the current one, to more actual reality. Now looking to the future, even if it is a good education they give us, we are still far from international standards, or be a first world university.If I had to give a personal opinion concerning what things change, I would definitely start with Faculty facilities (buildings and infrastructure), it is not something unknown, that as infrastructure our faculty has always suffered, perhaps now it is not as much as previous years and the comforts today exist unlike what you tell the stories of previous years, but even so it is not possible that for the year that we are, we still do not have a library according to the number of students present, nor a cafeteria that can receive at least half of the students and we must use facilities of other faculties or eat at fresh air. In summer it is not the problem, but when the rains arrive, the little space becomes more visible than ever. About Workload, length of studies and Teaching methods, The first two topics are the most important and in part they are influenced by the 3, many professors of this faculty are very good scientists and have a knowledge that we are far from achieving, but in terms of teaching, it would not be wrong to take them to learn a little teaching methods and put a little in the position of us, we are not experts in their topics nor do we have all the time in the world for their academic branches. About the workload is well known, that expectations exceed the reality of each person, and there are times when one has to prioritize one branch over another or even prioritize loved ones to devote time to studies, it is important to Keep in mind, The extracurricular workload should be more realistic than it is today, because when the person passes a limit, the problems and diseases begin, especially we have a bad mental health awareness, and finally about the use of technology and The curriculum (the subjects you have to study), i think it's the more accurate change, that has been made with the curricular innovation, some classes they have become more interactive , with the use of applications like kahoot and the change made in the subjects of study, the order of they teach us, and the inclusion of new subjects as the removal of some obsolete themes. They have managed to position the curriculum, to a context more in line with these times, according to the demands of current work fields.
