Conferences, photos, rallies, gourmet and festive moments…During two days, the international students of Université Paris Cité had the opportunity to meet and forge bonds with their French counterparts, who are considering studying abroad.

“The international days are both a festive and a crucial moment to integrate and welcome our international students. The students were absolutely delighted.” says Fatou Estéoule, Director of the International Relations and Strategy Office.

Truly a Melting Pot

Nearly thirty nationalities were represented. The University is extremely grateful to Tanguy Belaven and Tanguy Barneoud (STAPS), Violaine Barral (EILA), Joséphine Beuque (Medicine), Émilie Albert (Economy) and Maya Nocet (Circle U), returning from Spain, Germany or Austria, for sharing their experiences and offering inspiring testimonies. Last but not least, congratulations to the three lucky winners of the “photo favorites”: Dilara Balaban, Solal Grude and Sofia Calciolari.

The Rally, at the Heart of the event

More than a hundred international students braved the rain with panache to discover the cultural richness of Paris before meeting for a festive evening in the 13th district where a wonderful cocktail buffet awaited them. These moments were deeply appreciated by our international students:
