Topic 2: Workload and length of studies The previous topic is closely related to this one, the length of the studies is the “standard” for a scientific Career (5 years) , but the big problem is the real length of the university course, according to several sources, it is approximately 8 years, which is a long time (Chemistry and Pharmacy Career) All this happens because of things like annual subjects, repetitive and unnecessary subjects, the deciding which subjects are annual and which are not is a disaster, one of the most difficulty subject in the career...
