I spent my Erasmus+ in France, at the Strasbourg Business School, and I cannot say how life-changing it was for me.

While travelling and adapting to a completely new place, you learn to see the world from a di erent angle, which makes you a wiser person both professionally and personally. You notice how education and interpersonal approaches di er from one country to another, yet they deepen your understanding of how the world works. I personally think this is an irreplaceable skill towards a cohesive and supportive

society, and a precious resource for discovering new potentials to achieve a better future for you and all of us.

VU is highly organised, flexible, and responsible in providing its students with fast support on everything needed for a fulfilling exchange experience.
