POST 8: Chages to My Study Programme

The currently study program of Architecture in the University of Chile have a length of five years and haf and have four main topics, these are Construction and Structures, History, Town Planning, and for last Studio, that topics represent the subjects of every semester in the career, obviously each semester has a different focus of the topic for example in construction and structures in one semester you see all related with wood and bricks and in the following you see concrete and steel and in the next one is seismic calculation. Although the curriculum have different topics and subjects all of the workload it is always concentrated in Studio, I think this is a mistake because not all the architects want to do in they professional life the things we learn in the workshop, I think that is the main change that we need to do in the curriculum, the workload should be focused depending in the professional interest of the student, maybe not in the theoretical subjects, but if you created workshops focused in other areas (not design) like urbanism or construction it would be possible to deepen in that knowledge that is of real interest of some students.

 In Fau The infrastructure is not very good because the class rooms are too small for the number of students and the practical activities that take place inside, also the teching methods in general are quite old, but helped whit the technology like computer programs or the use of laser cutters to do your model.

    architecture lacks a bit of civic education, to criticize a bit what happens around it

POST 9: Personal Opinion

The post of this week is 4 questions 4 opinions so lest do that! 1.What is your opinion about nuclear power? I think nuclear power is more dangerous than beneficial (history show us), in the present we have more less polluting and dangerous types of energy like solar or wind energy, for the only thing that I think the nuclear power should continue to exist is because  you need that for get isotopes used in cancer treatments. 2.

POST 5: My Future Job

Hello blog, today   I going to write about my future dream job, well I study Architecture and in the future I would like to work in a architecture studio designing buildings in the beginning I would love to work in a famous studio such as Smijan Radic’s workshop (that was my dream) or a international studio like OMA, after work in a external studio for few years I would like to have my own studio; I imagine this work just like a workshop (the subject), of corse they work are done in an office and in general is a indoor work, but went you work in a studio you also need to go outdoors because you should go visit your design project in site, and also travel a lot to different countries and cities for know more kinds of architecture, and ways to do that, also visit famous building like references for your own designs (I would love to do this now). Today in the carrer I’m studyng a major called   “theory and critique” I don’t very sure the reason of what I choose that, but in ...
