Now I'm only in my first year of pharmacy, but I think a big
change that could be great for the programme is made some practices in the
first year. Is important for improve our education know what we want to do and
have motivation for study, but is difficult keep trying when you don't know
what a pharmacist really do, what are their potential and their resposabilities?
I think is not the same listen someone's experience that live it by your own. I
think the university could it be more flexibly in this topic.
In Pharmacy we have to study
different subjects, starting with physics, math, chemistry, laboratories, to continue
with clinical pharmacy, assistant pharmacy, biology, organic chemistry,
analytic chemistry, biochemistry a lot of chemistry!, and more pharmacological
subjects . Every subjects in the programme is important around the career, but
if is a very overload programme. We have a lot of workload in all the years of
the career, with 7 or 8 subjects in every semester! A good change could it be cut some subjects less important.
Anyway, when I finally meet the
faculty I was very disappointment with the infrastructure. I thought it was ugly
and very small, and we don't have enough study spaces. But with the time I
learned to appreciate the laboratories and the technology that it have, not all
the universities have these kind of laboratories and the important part is
learned, it doesn't matter if isn’t in a cute place, but is necessary add some spaces for study.
I like my teachers, they are
very intelligent and prepared people, but I think they could change some
teaching methods. Sometimes is difficult follow their rhythm with a face to face class, I think the method of been all day in the class doesn't work for improve learning. Some online class it'll be great.
I've heard that some degrees have practical activities on the first year. I agree with you, It will be so nice if we have it too.
