Hello Everyone! As you know I study forestry engineering, in this career we have to do a lot training fields, so we traveled to many places from Chile. One of my favorites training fields was “Practica I” In Frutillar , Region de Los Lagos, Chile. We stay in “Estacion experimental Frutillar”, in cabins, from there we travel every day to many places, like Osorno volcano, “Los pavilos”, “Alerce andino” National Park, and others. Is one of my favorites because there I saw for the first time a large number of native plants and animals from south of Chile, with knowledge, like Fitzroya cupressoides (Alerce), Lepidothamnus fonkii (Dwarf cypress) and Rhinoderma darwinii (Darwin’s Frog). Although we have to do a lot of homework, also we have time for us, to play board games, talk between each other or drink some beers (the last one is a secret). Also I share with a lot of people nice experiences Now I’m assistant for that practice field, so I go every summer to teach students
Hello everyone! Today I’ll talk you about a postgraduate course that I’m considering. Since I was a first year student, I began to show interest in the scientific research, so I started working in the “Laboratorio de Biologìa de Plantas” as a co-investigator of leaf anatomy. There I learnt to search and create research about my interest area. Botany became a subject that I really enjoy, identify plants, dismember flowers and see nature interactions are things that I love to do day by day. Last year I went to a course about floral morphology, I learnt about how this organ of the plant grows and interacts with other organisms, I met people who also love plants and what they do to work on that. Most of them are PhD in ecology or botany, so to work in research of plants I have to become a PhD. So I investigated and found that in Europe you don’t have to be a master to study in a PhD, because in Latin America an undergraduate career lasts more or less five years and i
