Post 9: Curriculum

Hi, today I am going to talk about the changes that I would like to make in the curriculum.

I started studying architecture last year and I'm part of the first generation with the new curriculum, the university took 10 years to make the new curriculum, and I think it still does not work well, maybe because we are the proof of the new curriculum.

With this new curricular some subjects were maintained, others were mixed, and new ones appeared. Like PHS and Transversal, the first is a class in which we are taught to design and build in a sustainable way, but the way in which the course was presented or done last semester did not work well, and despite having approved the subject, I think I did not learn much. The second is a course where we should be with students of the other courses of the faculty of geography and design, but in reality, it is not like that, there are few transversal ones that have students of the other courses and the content of the classes is in many cases They focus on architecture and do not teach something that really works for all courses.

In addition to that the idea of ​​the new curriculum was a greater relationship of the theoretical subjects with workshop, it is assumed that what we learn in theoretical subjects should be able to apply in the workshop, but that is something that is not fulfilled, maybe a little with structures in the second year, but only in some workshops.

I think the new curriculum is very well done, but it is not applying well and that is what would change it, it would make a better application of the new curriculum.
