Integration experience for international students at emlyon

“I was drawn right away by the learning by doing approach espoused by emlyon and their whole earlymakers ethos. This was quickly proven to be the case once I got stuck into classes. I arrived from my native Peru with a certain amount of volunteering experience under my belt and would certainly like to keep this going, whilst here in France.

In terms of personal interaction, the International Student Office has played a key role so far, plus the various contacts you establish with your peers. And, on a more banal but just as important note, get your “Caisse d’allocations familiales” application in order asap as the financial support it can provide is not to be underestimated!” - Antonella, MiM student at emlyon business school

Pauline - MSc in International Hospitality Management student

Following a grounding in the areas of catering, wine and beverages, Pauline Mey saw an opportunity to create a niche in the hospitality market by setting up eco-responsible, technologically advanced hostels for clients from around the world seeking 3–4-star quality of service at a price that’s right. Duly equipped with the emlyon business school and Institut Lyfe (formerly Institut Paul Bocuse) MSc in International Hospitality Management, she successfully navigated a business launch that could have been blighted by the COVID-19 pandemic to make a real name for herself and her business venture “Beau M Hostel”.

Christophe, MSc in International Marketing & Business Development student

For Christopher Rehfus – a german student – a return to France to continue studying made perfect sense, following a highly successful Erasmus semester spent in Lyon and prior internship experience. He explains why he chose emlyon business school, the MSc in International Marketing & Business Development, and why conditions at the school are so conducive to learning and integrating smoothly into life on campus.

How would you describe the settling-in period at emlyon business school?

Christopher Rehfus : To be honest, it was pretty seamless and for two main reasons. Firstly, I had already spent time not only in France but specifically Lyon, studying and working. I very quickly got a taste for the French lifestyle and fell in love with the city, which is vibrant and cosmopolitan, so it was not before too long that I became a genuine Francophile. Secondly, emlyon proved truly welcoming from the outset. Every member of staff at emlyon is supportive and willing to connect with the new students, which creates a safe environment to start studies. The spirit of a diverse and dynamic surrounding with engaging professors made me curious to learn more for the year to come.
