LEVEL 4 / POST 4 (WEEK 6): CAREER RELATED TOPIC

Hi, in this blog I will tell you a little about why I decided to study forestry engineering

When I was in high school I decided that I didn´t want to work enclosed betwenn 4 walls but that I wanted to work in something that would allow me to be in contact with the outdoors and nature because I have always liked plants a lot and all that is related to nature, so I started researching and found many careers related to the environment, but the ones that caught my attention in the first instance was marine biology, because I have always been struck by the organisms that live in the sea and how little is known about them, especially those that live at extreme depths, but when I investigated more in detail I realized that in Chile there was not much field, for which discards this option😭.

Then I continued searching and I found forestry engineering and Engineering in Renewable Natural Resources, but I chose forestry engineering as the first option because when I saw the curriculum I realized that this career had many summer internships, which I think are a very good way to use all the material seen in the theoretical classes, significantly helping the student's learning, also generating different skills such as working in a group.

My second practice in frutillar, chile 

Also, I chose this career because I believe that I can help in the conservation and protection of natural resources so that they persist over time for the next generations.
