Université des Sciences et Technologie de Lille: Lille I (USTL)

duration of cousres is to long for me, in my country a theoretic cours was never longer than 135 minutes,concerning laboratories everything was good, i liked also the possibilities to visiting factories in the program of studies

yes for example some of teachers should give more policopies with prepared cours (notes) and they shoul make only explication of it,it was annoying to make note everything fast during 4 hours of cours!!

it's really dificult to chose the courses, because it takes a lang time before you get al the information, so the lessons are already started which makes it really hard

typical for france everything takes a lot of time, i had to waith more then a mont to get my points and als the information regarding the courses is hard to get...so maybe the home university should push some more to get the papers in time ..

Too theorethical,we were studying at an advanced level with 1st year Phd. students.The classes of macroeconomics,microeconomics and econometrics were too mathemathical and did not provide us with the insight we were expecting.

The whole programm is a Joint European Studies Programme. That is why we were moving each trimester from one University to the other.However,there were around twenty of us and during the 1st trimester we were divided into two groups.One studying in Staffordshire (UK) and ours in Lille.We would have preferred the courses to be unified for both terms, as our group studied something completely different than the one in the UK.Even though, the course names were exactly the same.

At first it was very difficult to understand everything, because the teacher in France can really talk for hours and the students have to write everything down all the time, because the students only use their notes instead of books. But I don't really have recommendations, you just will get used to it.

Not really, the system is just very different of the one in my home country. But what I missed was homework (the foreign students didnt have to make any?!) and projects with the students of the host country.

Really low quality of lab courses, but some of the lectureres were good.

Less teatcher dominated, more interactive and better quality lab courses would be good.

chose wisely and in particular chose courses with less student so it's easier to make contact
