Course recommendations
As my specification was "International Managment" it was very interesting to attend the course "Culture, Organisation et Management", because students from North America, South America and Europe took this course, so we had the chance to discuss the subjects directly with people from other cultures

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
There were no housing on the campus, and in an appartment you have the freedom to invite people, and you also have your place for your own.

Personal comments
As I said the University did not have any accomodation, but they do have an association that helps exchange students to find an accomodation near the university or next to the centrum.

Personal comments
I wanted to improve my French a bit, mainly learn some business/academic vocabulary, at which I succeeded. Other than that I didn't improve much, since I usually spoke English with most people, especially my roommate. Also, Québécois French is pretty weird, so if you do not want to be made fun of in France, better not adapt the Québécois French too much;-).
