Postgraduate studies

Hello guys ¡¡ We are all students of the undergraduate program of this faculty, that is enough to become an agronomists but also we can do some extra studies like a MS or a PhD, there are different opinions about curse them, some people says that if you want to do it you’ll definitely had to do it outside, and I think that could be a great opportunity because of the knowledge of a different culture and country, but it’s quite expensive. The University give us the opportunity to make the continuous education, a program were we can obtain a Master’s degree in one extra year and the half of the money that a regular program cost. There are 3 Master’s programs that we can do at the faculty: Master in aquiculture science, agriculture sciences or water and soil management. I’m doing the water and soil management Master, it’s a new Master and it’s very relevant to the problems that we as agronomists will face. I’m interested in the water problem’s , the management, the distribution and the conservation, I hope the master could gave me the tools and the knowledge to do it. If I could do a master or a PhD in another country I’ll prefer Davis university or a New Zeeland University to do it.

Thanks for read it!

Me as an agronomist

On the future I’ll be an agronomist I think the most of the student that are in this major didn’t like to work indoors I think almost all of them like the outdoor working. In this career we had so many areas of what we can do, some of them like working with plagues or plant diseases, work in the SAG, work as a fruit farmer, work with animals and meet or milk production, work in plant nutrition, work in soils, water managing and a lot of other things that we can do. In fact I don’t really know what I’ll be working in the future; the only certain thing that I know is that I’ll be living in Puyangue or another rural place on the South. If I could choose my work I’ll choose to work with little farmers, trying to improve the rural areas so that way people will stop migrating to the big cities, making that the people take the food sovereignty into their own hands and stop selling the terrains to the big industry that degraded them. Another thing that I would like to do is work in the managing of water. Today the water scarcity is a problem in the world, and the agriculture is the discipline that uses the most quantity of water to produce, in that context today the farmers irrigate in a bad way their crops wasting a lot of water, so I would like to help to improve that situation. Another problem with the water is the distribution of it, some farmers or industry’s take big amount of water and let very little to another farmers.
About traveling, I don’t really think about it because as I said I want to live in the South in a very peaceful house and traveling around Chile.

23

Why 23?, well tomorrow I’ll be celebrating my birthday and that’s the age I’ll be celebrating but isn’t because of that, but because this number was on the back of the one & only Michael Jordan. Mike is one of the best sport players in the history and surely the best basketball player of all the time. He completely dominated the game and surpasses other great players of that moment like Barkley, Malone, Stockton, Miller, Ewing between others. He won a national championship with his high school North Carolina, after that he was the third pick in the 1984 draft (this means that 2 guys were selected before him), selected by the Chicago Bulls. Immediately he start showing his skills, he had an amazing jump and he could do all the things, shoot from 3, slams, assists, block, defend and steal balls, this let him won 3 championships (91,92 and 93) after this he decided to retire from his basketball career because he was dominated it and began a baseball career were he didn’t play very well (yes, he suck at it), and then in the 95 he return to the NBA and won another 3 champions!!. I can stay for hours watching plays of MJ or the dunk contest were he beat Dominic with an amazing slam (he seems to fly). Also he had a movie with the Looney Toons (nobody can say that). As I said he is the best basketball player of all time and neither Lebron, Kobe or anyone could beat him.
I was thinking in write about MJ or Friends (tv show) that was a good topic too.
