  Hello everyone! I’m studying public administration, so today I’m going to talk about the career and the study program. During the career, we study a lot of different subjects from a variety of knowledge areas, for example things related to math like statistics and subjects related to research. The main purpose of the career is that we will be able to deal in the future with public problems that is why it is a multidisciplinary career. The career lasts 5 years if you pass all the subjects, during that time we have theoretical learning and also in the last semester we have the professional practice. Because of the pandemic I have only had online classes so it is kind of difficult to me think about how normal classes are and how the evaluations are in face to face classes, so it is very hard for me to think about the things that I would like to change in the study program. I think that something that I would like to change about the study program , it wouldn’t be in the prog...

Hi everyone! When I think about the future, I feel really pessimistic because of the consequences that the climate change can produce in the planet. But if I could travel to the future, I would like to go to the year 3000 to see if the humanity destroyed the planet’s environment and see all the technological advances that could be created. I think that the only reason why I would like to go to the future and stay there, it would be if it looks like a better place than the present, for example if the society has done something for the environment and if it has become a more friendly place where people are more kind to each other and treat the animals and the other people in a nice way. But being honest I don’t think that we as a society survive until the year 3000, because probably we destroyed the planet’s environment long before we get to that year. I believe that it is extremely likely that the pollution and human actions will destroy the planet, including the animals, the plants...

Hello everyone! When I was in high school my sister told me about one of her best friends that studied Public Administration and had started working in one of the organizations of the United Nations, and immediately became one of my goals work in there, that is the reason of why I’m studying Public Administration. I really like the idea of working in a job that allow me to travel a lot and that let me know different countries and cultures. Even though I have never seen myself working in an office because I have always thought that it must be kind of boring, but I like the idea of working on something where I can be able to change the world, and I realized that maybe working in an office is not so bad if I’m doing something that I like. Finally, despite I really like the career that I’m studying and the jobs that I can have in the future related to the Public Administration, is not something that I would like to do for the rest of my life. So maybe in the future I would like to stud...
