Nuralieva Altynai is a senior student of the BA department who participated in an 杏吧传媒 exchange program in France. In spite of her last year of studying at 杏吧传媒, she decided to spend one semester at University School of Management in France because she believed that the outcomes of participation in an exchange program will eventually prevail over possible complications.

鈥�Reasons I applied for an exchange program were to experience a different schooling system and to explore European culture. After completing my exchange semester, I can surely state that I acquired much more than a set of my original aims.鈥�

Tell us about your experience at the exchange university?

鈥淚AE Lille - University School of Management, Universit茅 de Lille, was my daily destination during the fall semester of 2021. Most importantly, I was lucky to experience studying on campus offline, so I felt especially rewarding in all participating courses. Class lasted 3 hours, which was offset by little or no homework. However, education was majorly based on self-study and on the group project implementations. As a result, I dedicated most of my time to researching and analyzing additional materials to each course鈥�

The highlights of the exchange university study were:

• Receiving practical and up-to-date skills (startup simulation, stock trading contest, Pecha Kucha presentation);
• Experiencing diverse student body and building strong bonds with the groupmates from over 10 countries;
• Gaining knowledge in the academic field.

Tell us about the country you chose for the exchange program?

鈥淚 always imagined France as a country of romantic bystreets and leisurely conversations over a cup of coffee with a croissant ... oh l脿 l脿. And I hasten to report that it is largely true. From my observations I can conclude that France is a perfect place for those students who love artistic expression, hasteless lifestyle and appreciation of mealtime. It was remarkable that people here don鈥檛 miss an opportunity to travel or spend their time for an effective resting. Additionally, I met with many people, including professionals in various fields, and people who provided necessary help. Architectural and cultural heritage of the country is notably impressive. I truly enjoyed my stay in such a beautiful country as France!鈥�
