International Students

Fitting in, having fun! «Deciding to do an exchange program in ESTICE was the best decision I could have taken. I have had the chance to immerse myself in the French culture, make new friends, travel in France and Europe, take very interesting classes, and find myself in one of the most welcoming university communities. France and ESTICE have definitely exceeded all my expectations! » Alberto Padilla Rivera (Mexico, exchange student from the University of Alberta, Canada) «My stay in Lille was fantastic! The city is beautiful and very animated. There are many places to see and dicover. It was nice to study at ESTICE in such a familial environment and it was really easy to meet new people and make new friends. I now have many friends here and I can’t wait to come back!» Friederike Lebus (Germany, Erasmus student from Justus Liebig University Giessen)
