Course recommendations

Nothing particular. I did 3rd year courses which are concentrated on your major and there is not much room to choose from after you have chosen your field.

“JUST A BIG NO-No”

Overall

I’m attending the MBA Wine and Spirits Business program but I can say that everyone I have been talking to from my classmates to other international and french students from different programs and years have been saying the same: the school is a joke! Bad organisation, bad administration, average educational standards, below average services. And they all say: “it used to be much better years ago!” Nowadays is just a rip-off, both of time and money. The only astonishing thing is the energy that the student associations lavish in organising really cool events to gather together the most diverse groups from the whole school and create really interesting cultural experiences.

Careers

I have been attending and international course and all I can say is that we got no dedicated opportunities, only for french-speaking people and even poorly paid offers, as if international students would have parents or relatives in France who can host them and carry the burden of the everyday expenses for them. So bad!

Pros

Big communities of students and really good teachers (who have their hands tied and cannot express themselves) and international office workers

Cons

Everything else!

Course recommendations

It was a lot different then home, we dont have as much classes. One course was only 5 classes long, so it was a lot of information in a small time.

Personal comments

It's really up to you to learn the language outside the required language class. Practice with the locals, they're more than glad to help you learn it, in fact they love it when they see you trying hard to speak it.
