TECHNOLOGY
MEMBERS: Considerations
CLAUDIA We believe that, to have access to this
CASTELLANOS scholarship, you must firstly be a
good student and Secondly, be good
in languages, such as: English,
ESTEBAN Portuguese, Italian, among others.
PAYARES Furthermore, we believe it is a good
proposal and a great opportunity for
DANIELA MUÑOZ students with high levels of academic
performance and command of a
second language, especially English,
ANA GARCIA which opens many doors in the labor
among the advantages:
1. The enrichment of knowledge, 2.
Culturization. 3. The change of
thought. 4. The enjoyment of living an
enriching and unforgettable
experience. 5. University support.
While what, among
disadvantages, we find: 1. limited
the
number of students to participate in
this scholarship, Owing to what, only
considers students with high levels of
academic performance and with a
good command of a second language.
2. It does not promote incentives
enough to encourage students to
participate in this scholarship,
because, considering only students
with high levels of academic
performance, it removes the
possibility for students who can
handle a second language, but who
have a Average academic
performance level of participating in
this. In conclusion, we can say that
this scholarship is one of the
beginnings to captivate and encourage
students to handle a second language,
such as English.
