WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS CAREER / STUDY PROGRAMME?

As a good Chilean, I decided at the last minute. Obviously, studying food engineering was not my only choice, ever since I was a small child I imagined myself in different professions as an astronomer or archaeologist, but never investigate. Until the time came for the truth, time to take one of the most difficult decisions of my life. A decision that made my parents feel proud.

I began to investigate the program of different universities, beginning with those of astronomy and archeology. But I did not like it too much. Then my father helped me with my choice, mentioning engineering and its different variables. Deciding in food engineering at the University of Chile, mainly for his field of work and the employability he had.

My job expectations have always been the same. I want a stable job, in which I have time to share with family. But first, I must overcome the difficult study program I decided to take. It is really stressful how difficult it is, but I made very good friends who have helped me throughout the program.
