Welcoming international students for semester 2

Semester 2 sees the arrival of new faces on the North and South campuses of the University of La Réunion: international students from Europe, Africa and Canada. A half-day institutional reception was organized to welcome them.

On January 27, international exchange students newly arrived on the island were officially welcomed by the University of Reunion in the Jean-Claude Miré council room, on the Moufia campus. The welcome morning allowed them to meet staff from the International Relations Department and other University services, but also to find out about courses, accommodation and registration procedures.

Our local “student ambassadors” and members of the ISRUN (International Students of Reunion Island) association also joined the morning to present the various student activities planned this semester.

In addition to the international students already present since the start of the school year last August, the University of Reunion is welcoming 30 new international students on an exchange program this semester. Via the Erasmus+ and BCI programs, a total of 12 nationalities have just joined us this semester from Germany, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Spain, Ethiopia, Italy, Lithuania , Luxembourg, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Switzerland.
