Welcome Meeting
At the beginning of each semester a Welcome Meeting is held for the new incoming students. This is an important moment, not only for the international students, but also for the International Office staff, as it’s a good opportunity to meet and exchange. During this meeting you will be given useful information concerning life at Lille and at Sciences Po Lille, courses, registration, and so on.
Introductive seminar
Just before the semester starts, an introductive seminar is offered to our international students. During one week, they can attend the following courses:• a French language course (6 hours)
• a Methodology course (6 hours)
Please note that these courses don’t allow the students to get credits.
The administrative registration and course registration will be made before the students' arrival.
The students from the Bureau des Internationaux (association in charge of integrating the international exchange students) will organize lots of events, like lunches, visits, parties, games and so on. You will meet your other classmates and will start to live your own international experience.
