Course recommendations
There was a free French course provided by the University for foreign students that took place every Thursday and Friday. It covered everthing from cultural references to pronounciation to grammar. I found it an excellent help to my French. Also there's a language learning lab called CLAM where you can pick up a new langauge in your free time.

Personal comments
The Internet access and library were pretty dissmal -the library closed at 6 every day as did the computer rooms. This was very inconvenient for foreighn students who do not ahve PCs. In order to print any course work I had to take a trip to the city centre!

Personal spending habits
Food was less because it tends to be slightly (but not much) cheaper in France; my phone expenses were less because I had an internet connection in my room. Beware of the prices of drinks in bars though! Spent more on travel because there were loads of things to see, generally.

Personal comments
I'd recommend getting the complementary health insurance to save on doctor's bills; I'd also recommend the 'abonnement' for the local buses and trams.

BTS Commerce International
Anys C
France, Other courses
Marketing and Sales Management, 2021
Overall
J'ai effectué un BTS Commerce International au Lycée Albert Schweitzer à Mulhouse qui est une formation de 2 ans préparant aux métiers du commerce à l'international.
Cette formation m'a permis de mettre l'accent particulier sur les langues, notamment l'anglais et l'allemand, ce qui à accru mon niveau de compréhension et surtout d'expression.
Je suis en effet désormais en capacité de réaliser un entretien de vente en langue anglaise.
Ce BTS forme aussi sur les techniques et les outils relatifs au commerce international comme les techniques de prospections, de marketing, de négociation, de veille de marché, d'économie, de droit et de management.
Un stage à l'étranger est requis. J'ai ainsi effectué une mission export en partenariat avec l'entreprise Beyer S.A.S qui m'a chargée de réaliser de la prospection active à Amsterdam au Pays-Bas.
J'ai aussi pu réaliser une étude de marché complète pour une entreprise viticole.
Enfin nous sommes formés à la gestion import-export à travers les Incoterms et les régimes douaniers par exemple.
C'est dans cette perspective que j'ai effectué un second stage au sein d'une entreprise importatrice de denrées alimentaires située à Mulhouse et que j'ai pu assuré le suivi des opération import.

Personal comments
The Shamrock bar was a common meeting-up place for Erasmus students and has a good party atmosphere at night. Zen is also quite cool, being a few tram stops away from the campus. Travel opportunities are very good in Mulhouse - you can get to Basel in 20 minutes with the TER and there are quick links to Strasbourg, Besancon and also Paris. This can prove useful on Sundays when hardly anything happens in Mulhouse itself!

Personal comments
The building where I was placed, Batiment C, is very inexpensive (about €140 / mth, and less if you have help from the CAF), but there are only about 3 toilets and 1 kitchen for every 40 rooms, which isn't ideal. Still, all rooms have internet access, which proved very useful.

Course recommendations
The Alsatian course that I took, although not as formally structured as I had expected, is very interesting (IMO) and teaches you a bit about Alsace at the same time. Would also recommend the linguistics courses.

I wish it was more structured - a lot of things seemed a bit disorganised to me.
