Université de Bourgogne

Get information before you get there so you know what they offer and what you want to take. Familiarize yourself with the French system! Be persistant in getting information once you get there and don't let yourself be discouraged by the reserved manner of people you might face. They have a lot do to at the university and tend to be a little bit unpatient. ( Madame Piroel of the English department is an angel and will do everything to help you!)

It's a little confusing to find out where the board is that has all the information one needs. They seem to be scattered all over the place.

Try to place high! If you feel challanged thats good! If you place to low then it's a waste of time.

Learn more, I didn't learn as much french as a I wanted. There were a lot of American students. I didn't practice French that much except when I was in town.

try to check before arriving abroad..in my situation was impossible bacause my host university had not a written programme about its courses

help the local students to be more "open" about erasmus students

I took an architecture course which I really enjoyed. The professor was one of the best I had ever had; he made sure we understood every concept before moving onwards with the lesson.

My advice: fail the placement test on purpose and get put into level III (ie movie class)

Plow as much as you can and school becomes much more enjoyable

Try International Public law with Mr. Apostolidis

I miss information system because it is annoying to follow all the boards and notices.
