Studying Geography at FAU

 Hello everyone! I study Geography and it is a very beautiful career, it has everything you need for your personal and academic training, from numbers to the social area and everything put into practice through the experience that means the field trips, where you can see and work in practice what you studied in theory.


As for the career program, it is quite complete as I said before, it presents the study of various areas that complement the development of the professional. Perhaps if I had to modify something of this it would be that in the more scientific areas there is a certain correlation from one to the next, but that does not happen at the level of social or human geography, in that sense, a greater correlation could mean greater ease when choosing an area to work in.


I would structure a less burdensome workload that encourages camaraderie and mutual support rather than competition. As for the FAU facilities, I think they are old and that is why they are structurally deficient, which means problems to develop and study with ease, that is why I would put more roofs for rainy days, improve the rooms so that the audio is better.


As for the use of technology, I would enable more rooms with computers because almost everyone in the FAU uses computer programs to work and often we can not afford equipment to support the load of the programs, finally on teaching methods, I think it depends on each teacher, in general in geography there are many teachers who love teaching, but there are others who do it quite badly.

  1. Hi, I've always heard students complaining about infraestructure but as you said, it is because they are old buildings, I also think there sould be more rooms with computers.

  2. Hi Javiera! I think you have a point about computer rooms, as it's essential for everyone who studies at FAU.

Crochet Knitting

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to tell you about one of my hobbies, which is crochet knitting. The first time I picked up a crochet needle was when I was a little girl, however I didn't start knitting until I was about nineteen years old. I started by knitting small squares guided by youtube tutorials, then scarves, hats and mittens. It was then that I began to understand that there were different types of material to knit: wool for warm clothes, yarn blends with wool for spring garments, and finally I discovered the wonderful cotton yarn. Cotton yarn, besides being useful for many things, is used to make "amigurumis", a type of weaving (I think Japanese) with which you can create figures like animals, dolls and whatever you want! I started knitting everything I could imagine with this technique, and when I had my daughter I decided to create for her a collection of powerful women and native animals, that's what I try to do now, although I really have little time....

My best vacation ever

Maihue Lake I didn't go on vacation  recently due to the fact of the pandemic world moment, but surely everyone is in the same situation. Anyway my best vacation ever was in 2017, when I went to the Chilean south. Anyway, my best vacation ever was in the summer of 2017 when I went to Chilean south. I traveled around various towns of Los Lagos and Araucanía, I got to know some of people and their life stories, it was fantastic and a cool experience.                                                                                                                                       ...

My dream job

 Hello everyone! Today I am going to tell you about my dream job. I don't really know what area of geography I would like to work in, however I would like to work outside of Santiago, in the south of Chile, in a rural or urban area.  In a rural place I imagine that I will work in an organization that does field work, maybe risk and socio-environmental vulnerability studies, or working with communities helping to address water scarcity, or in indigenous territories contributing in their struggle for recognition and respect and care for nature.  In an urban area I would like to work with informal territories, working to end housing inequality, for social and environmental justice.  I would like to always be able to work in the field and hopefully never in an office, to travel a lot doing studies of geomorphology and biogeography always with the objective of contributing to the community. As for the salary, I would really like to earn enough to live peacefully, more for...
