changes to my study programme

Hi everyone, today we´re going to talk about the changes I would like to make to my study programme; I´m on my last year at the university so I can look back and thing about all the subjects, tests, internships, order about the signatures, etc. that I would like to remove or change. Actually as students have fought all this years for a few of things that we consider wrong or not good enough for our learning, some of them have changed but not at all.

Well, the firs important thing is that on our first year at the university we have a signature named “Aprendizaje” (remember that I´m studying psychology) in wich we have to do a homework using rats for a research. The problem is that these rats live in poor conditions and also are used for experiments that have been making many times after so they are not necessary at all, and ethically it´s supposed that you can only research with animals when is necessary for a new results on an investigation and when you use as little animals as possible; neither of the two ethical conditions are met in this case. So, we thing that we shouldn’t make our research with rats because it´s not necessary and is unethical, that is the first change that I consider extremely necessary.

The second thing that I thing  important to be changed is that we have our internship on our last year at the university so we spend four years of our career without experience and come to our last year thinking that we don´t know anything. For this situation I thing that we should have little internship since our second year at the career.
