Faculty

Created in 1989, the Socials Sciences Faculty has the mission of bring up professionals with high academic and investigation skills of 4 important disciplines: Anthropology, Education, Psychology and Sociology.

Actually the Faculty is living a process of “Curricular Renovation”, because of the process of reorganization of the Undergraduate education. This process is oriented to give to students an education of excellence according to the new eras of the Chilean education. The process empathizes new methodologies of teaching and learning; different modalities of debit and forms of degree; to tie the formation of pre and postgraduates; and to renew the curricular “malla” of the careers and programs distributed in the Faculty.

The curricular “malla” of Anthropology has changed gradually, but I think that it still would have to being improved more. I think that are many courses and teachers that would have to be “eliminated” and that we must demand others. WHAT WOULD BE MY FIRST STEPS TO DEALING WITHTHIS SITUATION? I think that no much, because the Anthropology representatives are the one who must do it and I’m not one. However I can to suggest changes in class meetings to see if my companions agree with courses that I would like to change. The benefits of that would be a best methodological and theoretical preparation and for that reason more efficient professionals.

On the other hand, the creation of more computation rooms would be very good. Although this problem has been improved lately, the increasing computers necessity of students has still not been satisfied
