“I graduated with a dual Bachelor in International Business and French from an American University and I chose to go to France for my masters for many reasons. I have always been interested in the French culture and language, and when I studied abroad several years ago, I loved it and wanted to go back. I also chose France because French is my third language and it was really important for me to improve it.

I looked at many programs in several French universities and was impressed with the academic level and rigorous structure of the programs. I also chose France because of the high education standards, and the openness and friendliness of the country in regards to hosting international students. I was glad to find a program taught in English with a French language requirement (at the IESEG School of Management in Lille) because I wanted to focus on the academic aspect of the masters without having any language barrier, but still improve my French and benefit from the diversity of my classmates and professors.

I believe the experience of studying in France will help me tremendously in reaching my career goals. The international experience of solving complex business problems with international students and professors has strengthened my international knowledge, making me more competitive in the global economy.”
