MSC IN LUXURY & FASHION MANAGEMENT STUDENT 2015-16

From Brazil

 

Three months before my arrival in Paris, I was selected among many different students from Latin America to study at PSB Paris School of Business.  This was a perfect fit for my academic plan and professional career.  The school gave me the amazing opportunity to benefit from a scholarship and study in the MSc program in Luxury & Fashion Management.

The school is a melting pot of international students and teachers from different countries around the world. In addition to the great courses that the Master program is offering, I feel like I am benefiting from a wonderful chance to mix with so many different cultures and develop relationships that will help me build my international career.  I am a tourist every day as I met new people and learn to appreciate different perspectives that I am certain will help me find new and unique opportunities.  I feel like I am travelling every day.

I am also learning new research methods and discovering the world of luxury a lot better with the help of exclusive trips and tours provided by the school.  I see a significant difference learning from professors who are also real-world professionals and from being in Paris where we interact directly with the world's fashion leaders. It helps you apply what you learned in class and build a professional network.

Living in Paris on the University campus is also rich in discoveries and experiences. There's a theater, a library, a gym, a cafeteria and much more. The residency hosts many different activities that promote the interaction between students.  Living here has made me part of the community.
