“Expérience enrichissante”
Romain D
France, Graduate
Financial Management, 2022
OverallMon expérience au sein de l'Univsersité de Bordeaux fut intéressante, et surtout très instructive.
Plus précisément, les cours sont de qualité, et la qualité des intervenants l'est tout autant. J'ai effectué diverses formations en son sein, et à chaque fois, les différents enseignants, chercheurs et professionnels furent tous autant captivants les uns que les autres, et très disponibles.
La qualité des travaux quant à elle n'est plus à démontrer, il en est de même pour les cours. Le seul petit problème concerne la Licence Comptabilité, Contrôle et Audit, qui ne reprend que grossièrement le DCG, sans s'intéresser aux normes internationales IFRS. Hormis cet aspect là, les cours sont intéressants, bien aidés par les professeurs.
La vie étudiante est très bien, il y a une bonne ouverture chez chacun d'entre eux, plusieurs activités sont prévues, les anciens étudiants sont également investis, ce qui permet de pouvoir ouvrir son esprit et échanger quotidiennement avec de nouvelles personnes.
Les aides sociales permettent d'aider au quotidien les étudiants en difficulté, en plus de faciliter les départs à l'étranger. Elles sont donc d'une grande aide et sont globalement bien structurées même si on peut y ressentir un manque de moyen et/ou de personnel par moment.
Il existe enfin juste à côté des logements étudiants facilement accessibles, pour toute personne ayant besoin de se loger, ainsi que des missions pouvant aider à obtenir une certaine rémunération. Il s'agit donc globalement d'une université de bonne qualité.

Pros
Enseignants de qualité, environnement de travail, apprentissage de qualité, bonne vie étudiante

“University of Bordeaux - master in International Economics”
ROUX G
France, Graduate
Business Studies, 2020
Overall
the courses are very good, in the first year of the master it's very theoritical with lots of knowledges in finance and macroeconomics. The second year of the master is more practical focuses on purchasing optimization (sourcing), logistics and the different modes of market penetration (export, establishment). This M2 includes an internship in a company for several months, with the setting up of an international business plan in team during the first semester as preparation. During this internship, I worked as a Market Strategy Analyst for a company in Bordeaux where I formalized an export-based growth strategy with a business plan.

Pros
Business school diploma alike but for free
Cons
the university gives no contact to find an internship

Overall
I wish I had known...
I wish someone had told me how difficult the administration at the university was going to be. The Erasmus Office are content to sit about and paper push, even in times of trouble. The Law office cannot be bothered walking the distance from their office to the Erasmus office if they need any information. Nor do they attempt to use Alexander Graham Bell's invention - it's left to the student to do all the running around. Truthfully, had I have known the sheer hassle and pressures involved in enrolling, I think I would have simply opted out!

In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
The Erasmus office needs to be more helpful and welcoming to international students. They should supply relevant information to the relevant departmental teachers. For instance, my erasmus exchange was linked to my program of study at my home university. I was obliged to study at an institution in France in order to progress to the final year of my French degree. As I study a dual honours program in the UK, I was told that I needed to study my second subject in French at an institution in France. There were some students at Bordeaux, who actually studied French Law in England or European Legal Studies. However, none of the module leaders/teachers were aware of this distinction. I was often marked down for not having relevant background knowledge and students who were there to achieve a French law degree were marked solely on their grammar. It was amusing, but at the same time, rather worrying. I often thought Bordeaux only welcomed so many international students for it's own gain - a good reputation and plenty of E.U./Erasmus subsidies.

Experienced a change in life
Advanced my studies & career
Final comments
*Please ensure you take out civil, medical/travel and personal contents insurance before you travel or when you get there. It will prove invaluable. The civil insurance certificate is demanded by everyone when you arrive, from your new landlord to the people in charge of enrolment.
*Realistically plan out a budget, but be sure to have a good buffer zone in case of emergencies (trust me, you are probably going to need it!)

“Mon expérience à Bordeaux”
Miguel G
France, Undergraduate
Economics, 2019
Overall
Etudier à l'université de Bordeaux m'a permis d'avoir une ouverture international car c'est un campus avec des gens issues de différents pays/continents. L'enseignement est de haut niveau avec des professeurs renommés dans son domaine, donc j'ai obtenu une base théorique en économie très importante mais aussi à un niveau quantitative( statistiques et mathématiques) et au même temps avec des matières liées au monde de la finance( Théorie du Portefeuille).
Le campus pourrait avoir des meilleures conditions et les étudiants devraient être plus encadrés pour une entée plus facile dans le monde professionnel.

Overall
In the Law faculty of Bordeaux, once studying for a Master, you will have the opportunity to study subjects that give you a practical reality to the theory. You will also count on the solidarity of the students that would not hesitate to help you with classes or with any information that you need in order to succeed.
You will also find a lot of student associations which satisfy your hobbies.

Careers
The university gives you access to a lot of internship proposition, both at national and international scale.
