In the spring semester of 2021, I studied at the Montpellier Business School in France as an exchange student. Montpellier Business School is one of the oldest business schools in France with a modern campus and an innovative approach to learning. In France, the semester starts earlier, so I started my studies remotely in January, because COVID-19 made its changes in our lives and arrived in Montpellier when the school began full-time classes, that is, in February. The learning process itself is different from the learning process at UrFU. In short, everything we did in pairs was aimed at practical application. For each discipline, we were divided into small groups, and we created projects, analyzed real cases, and much more. Montpellier Business School is international and there are many students from other countries. Therefore, for example, I now have friends from China, India, Sri Lanka, France, Brazil, Mexico, and Luxembourg. There were very interesting classes and teachers, for example, at the French culture class; the teacher brought French wine and cheese, for a complete immersion in the culture.
In general, classes for foreigners: French language and French culture are very interesting and they will remain forever in my memory. The organizational processes at the school are at the highest level, especially for foreigners, they always helped me very quickly with all questions.
Due to COVID-19, there were fewer students in the city than usual. However, that did not stop me from making friends and having a great time in France. I immediately became friends with guys from the group. Despite COVID-19, we managed to travel to Spain, 4 hours by bus, and you are in beautiful Barcelona. In addition, we often traveled to neighboring cities, and I fell in love with the landscapes of southern France. Sun, warmth, palm trees, sea and mountains - this was the best spring in my life.
La vie est belle, saisis chaque opportunité!
