Blog 4- My postgraduate studies

Hello readers,

Honestly until now I have not thought much about my postgraduate studies, I had planned to decide throughout my career to know which area is the one that I am most passionate about, however there are two specialties that I would like to study.

The specialty that most attracts my attention is pediatric dentistry because if a problem is identified in a child this will prevent many more in the future, so it is very important that children have good dental health, one of the things I do not like about this specialty is that children are usually scared when they go to the dentist so they may throw tantrums, the good thing is that lately has been implementing canotherapy in which dogs are used to improve the response and emotional support in children with disabilities.

Another specialty that I would like is legal and forensic dentistry, in my opinion it is a very interesting specialty especially for the fact that you can know who the corpse belongs to through the teeth. Before entering the career I did not know that I could specialize in this until one day a professor mentioned it in a class and I was quite surprised.

There are very few places to apply for these specialties and they also ask for a basic or intermediate level English certificate.

I think that the choice of my postgraduate studies is very important so I should think about it well and although these two are the ones that call my attention at the moment my opinion could change throughout the career, I hope to experience different areas throughout this to be sure of my decision.

Blog 3- My dream job.

 When I was child I dreamed of being a dancer, I always enrolled in the academies and participated in the dances organized by the school, I really enjoyed it a lot but there came a day when I began to lose interest and gradually stopped doing it, I no longer had as much fun as before.

After that I dreamed of studying medicine and being able to help people but as I got older I realized that it was an idea influenced by my mother, however I still liked the health area and for many years I said that this was my dream career because I didn't  know what to say.

After a while I started to investigate about different jobs, I was looking for a long time because none of them called my attention, until one day a friend told me that I could study Odontology and I started to investigate more about this career, I saw videos about the work they did and I loved it completely, this was my only option when applying so if the score was not enough I probably would have taken a sabbatical year.

The reasons why I liked this career was to be able to help people and the fact that it is a very manual career, which I found very entertaining, also the salary is very good, approximately 1.500.000-2.000.000.000.

I would really love to be able to travel doing what I like, I hope someday to be able to do it, I also had thought about doing my specialty in another country, I think it would be a very good experience.
