Grenoble Ecole de Management

At ESCG the two events not to miss is the Integration Weekend and the Gala. Student associations organise soirées and parties all the time, as well as other schools' student associations. Brilliant way to get to know people. In Grenoble, there are 5 night spots to mention: Les 3 Canards, le Couche-Tard, London Pub and of cousre Le SAXO and le Vertigo (open until 05 am). Everything within walking distance. In the outskirts of town there are much bigger night clubs but they are more expensive + you need a ride! The National Music Festival on June 21st is an event not to miss, it is all over the country with music, concerts, and people everywhere!

My favorite sport is fencing, the reasons of my preference are that: I had the opportunity to enjoy the University Fencing Club at Grenoble, I made good friends and learn french with the team menbers,I took part in competitions during the weekends and by extension I improved my fencing level.

I always liked having a drink at the Palais de la Beire at Victor Hugo Place. It was very pretty with the buildings and the alps in the background.

Bars or pubs, there can free talking to local people and meet classmates ...within the good feeling to talk each other.. good

Grenoble is trully university town. During the weekends downtown is full of international and French students having fun in a big number of cafes and restaurants. There are lots of places where international students can find part of their own culture, like Asian restaurants, London pub or Irish pub, and of course the best of French cuisine and French culture.

south pole(Ice skating) I didn't like the atmosphere of GEM, Grenoble is a real Universitarian city but unfortunally GEM didn't interect with others universities of the city... They prefer to organize parties "from the school to the school". The big problem is that after two months you'll gaing out always with the same people. Classes and night life won't be so different so.... And you'll see that french students are a little bit "strange"
