POSTGRADUATE COURSE

Postgraduate course

How paradoxical it is to think how much it costs to finance a professional career, and at the same time have to be validated with a postgraduate degree for a good working insertion. 

It's curious that during the last weeks I have thought a lot about this subject, and the truth is that my possibility of studying a postgraduate degree is reduced to whether or not I get a scholarship, and here there are two possible scenarios.

The first one, and the more difficult one, is subject to being able to obtain the much desired Beca Chile, which is a benefit that allows you to study abroad, and which not only finances your academic costs, but also your airfare, health insurance and living expenses. This would be the best scenerio, and if I could get it I would like to study a Master's degree in Anthropology with a public orientation at the Autonomous University of Madrid, full time to only be there for a year, so being away from my family wouldn't be so much.

The second one, and the most likely to happen, is to get the Conicyt scholarship, which finances your academic costs and living expenses for a master's degree from a national institution. In this case, I would like to enter a Master's program in gender and cultural studies offered by the University of Chile.

Well, in both of these cases I'm bound to scholarships, because unfortunately graduate studies are very expensive, and it's not easy. I hope that some of these plans can come out...
