Description:
Le siège de l'Université René Descartes est situé 12, rue de l'Ecole de Médecine à Paris 6e, dans les bâtiments abritant autrefois le collège de chirurgie. En 1769, Louis XV en confie la construction à l'architecte Jacques Gondouin et Louis XVI, en 1774, pose la "dernière pierre" de l'amphithéâtre. Le décret du 21 mars 1970 crée une université pluridisciplinaire à partir des anciennes facultés de Paris : médecine, pharmacie, lettres, sciences humaines.

HOUSING
by Yuko, Universiteit van Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Psychiatry and Clinical Psychology, Independent
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Passy (the area I lived) is the best place to live, in my taste
Personal comments:
I honestly don't know anything about the housing connected to the university. but if you ask me about my personal experiences with the realestate agency, I've been to the court and had lawyers help me out. If anybody reading this needs advice on which realestate agency to seek and not to seek, please mail me. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
STUDENT LIFE
by Fortunata, South Bank University, London, United Kingdom
Business Studies, Erasmus
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Activities, Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Personal comments:
A night view of Paris from Montmartre is not to be missed. A walk along Champs Elysée where there are plenty of nice café where to sit and have a taste of french style. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
For practically every course there's lecture AND lessons in work groups. During the work group lessons we did a lot of experiences and discussions, you learn IN LIVE various phenomena in Psychological fields. I have learned EVERYTHING I know until now in Psychology in this university.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
It is known that the French universities do not give out the degrees very easily. The courses are absolutely interesting and fantastic, but you need a lot of luck to succeed in exams because your hard work doesn't pay out every time.

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: French
Was learning French a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my French How much did you improve your French?
My level before: Basic phrases My level after: At ease in most situations Personal comments:
I arrived in Paris with everyday knowledge learnt at school, which means quite a big difference with real life. But after a couple of months of hard language study you'll be surprised with the improvement. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Generally life in my home town Tokyo costs more than in Paris, but living alone costs more than living with family. Therefore, more expenses in Paris. Food, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone, Housing: was more expensive than at home. Travel: was the same price as at home.

Important to choosing this university...
I wish I had known...
Not really, for me was not the first time i moved to a foreign country, so i was already used to changes. In my opinion:
I loved it but I'm not sure everybody would.
During my experience abroad, I ...
Personal recommendation:
I would suggest a better coordination and organisation for Erasmus students and more support. FINAL COMMENTS
Living and studying abroad is a great experience and each person should do it at least once. It opens your mind, it improves your communication skills and your ability to understand people from different cultures. If you have the opportunity pack your suitcase and go, there is a world out there waiting to be seen. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
