23 Institute of Technology Faculty of Arts, Languages and Humanities Law, Political Sciences and Management Faculty of Sciences and Engineering

27 Outline - La Rochelle city and surrounding area - The University of La Rochelle - Studying on an exchange - Studying at the University of La Rochelle

28 During an exchange, you study overseas for one or two semesters and you gain points to complete your home degree. You also improve your foreign language fluency and cultural knowledge very fast.

29 You usually make long-term friends from other countries. You get international experience for your CV. You learn life skills, like adaptability.

30 You ll quite likely have the best semester of your studies.

31 Outline - La Rochelle city and surrounding area - The University of La Rochelle - Studying on an exchange - Studying at the University of La Rochelle

32 Choose your semester Semester 1: Early September to mid December. Semester 2: Early January to late May or June, depending on the faculty.

33 Choose courses that advance your degree and/or your interests.

34 French Language? Other Languages? Law? Maths? Business? Sciences? French literature? Sports? Media Studies? Management? Marine Biology? You can find all the classes we teach here:

35 How many classes? French students study about 16 small (busy) courses per semester, each worth 2-6 ECTS. They need to pass 30 ECTS per semester.

36 Exchange students take ECTS per semester. This depends on your government and university regulations. This means 5-8 courses which will typically be a mix of courses which count for home degree subjects and free choices which may (or not) count for unspecified credits.

37 One Australian/NZ paper = between 6 & 7.5 ECTS, depending on your government and university regulations. Or 1 3 La Rochelle courses N.B. Three 2 ECTS courses generally have more work than one 6 ECTS course. We recommend taking about 24 ECTS, but this is a sending institution decision.

38 Study French at your level. You will have three 2-hour classes (oral, written, theme) 6 ECTS Level test for next year : 9am on 06 September 2013

39 Study some classes in English Such as business courses, courses about NZ, Australia, the Pacific Islands, Canada and the USA and many EN< >FR translation classes.

40 Maybe study another language Spanish*, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean or Indonesian (* No beginner classes in Spanish, for other languages only in semester 1)

42 What did Rita, Gary and Molly like and dislike about the ULR?

43 Rita (Auckland) studied law and French. Liked: the beautiful, friendly city of La Rochelle Disliked: the lack of events

44 Gary (Auckland) studied law and French. Liked: the other exchange students Disliked: the lack of online university software

45 Molly (VUW) studied French language and literature. Liked: small, friendly size of the University of La Rochelle Disliked: the lack of communcation by the university

46 University Residence - Student Rooms cost : 175 to 425 per month (some of which is refunded by the CAF) - Is flatting an option?

47 The Cost of Living in La Rochelle (monthly maximum) - Rent: 425 euros (less CAF) - Food: 250 euros - Transport : 30 euros - Extras (telephone, laundry, parties) : 100 Total : 715 euros per month (less CAF) One-off costs : - Health Insurance : 200 euros - Rent Bond (1 month s rent) - Property Insurance : 50 euros - Set-up accommodation costs: (sheets, pillow, pans, plates, etc.)

48 Working Exchange students may work in France, but in a country with 10% unemployment, jobs are very hard to find.

49 The Big Academic Differences - French students study in class-groups and don t choose their courses. (This partly explains why course descriptions are very brief.) - Exchange students do just the opposite. - Some days can be very long (8am 8pm). - French students do more fact learning and less personal research. - They do more oral exams and less written assignments.

50 The Big Academic Differences - In France, 12/20 is a very good grade. In 2012, only 71% of the LEA students who were present at the examinations passed their year. In 2010, only 64% passed (400/624) and only 28% of students got above 12/20 (179/624).
