Personal comments
It was a great opprtunity to improve my english especially because I would like to work abroad (Lonndon) in the financial and banking field. The university was very international with students from all over the world ( China, India, Korea, France, England, Belgium, Turkey....). I enjoyed a lot my stay and I had the opportunity to understand different poins of views from different people with different backgrounds.

Academic
Course recommendations
Recommend financial innovation and structured finance in the fall semestre for finance students. Advanced macroeconomics if you'd like to deepen your knowledge of economics althought a hard course. Mergers and acquisitions was also very interesting and very practical based.
