In the future.. a ph.D?

 Well, of course I would like to have a post graduate degree, I already mentioned in the last post that I made. I would love to do research once I finish my studies and teach in college, and for that you need a ph.D or a Master’s degree. I plan on taking a ph.D in chemistry, and for the moment the ones that I’m interested the most are in the area of theoretical chemistry and physical chemistry. Fortunately, those post graduate programs are teach in this university, so that´s my plan A, finish my undergraduate studies and continue here my post graduate studies. Other options that I’m thinking about are studying in the University of Toronto, in Canada, or the University of Lund, in Sweden, and it’s great because both have the ph.D in theoretical chemistry and physical chemistry. Canada it’s my first option between both because I have relatives in Toronto, unlike Sweden, my relatives that live there live very far of Lund, so I will have to rent a place to live anyway, but in case of emergencies I will have somewhere to go at least. Also in Sweden I will have the opportunity to travel across Europe, I always wanted to do it. Because of the nature of a ph.D in science, you need to do a thesis and that needs a ton of lab hours experimenting, it has to be taught on a class room and on a lab, so sadly it can’t be taught online.

  1. Canada and Sweden are perfect places to study and it's not sadly it's happily that chemistry is has to be in the lab.
