“City school made for independent people, easy curriculum.”
Hans H
China, Undergraduate
Business Studies, 2021
Overall
This schools curriculum is easy. Its not made to be a place where you go for a serious job in engineering or anything like it. You go here to study what you want to study, and spend time devoted to expanding your life outside of school as well, perhaps traveling around Europe, or exploring a beautiful city with great food.

For the most part, students speak english on the university's campus so many miss out on the opportunity of actually utilizing their french.
