Maria from Bocconi Universtity (Italy)

I am an Italian student and I have been enrolled for 4 months at emlyon business school. My Erasmus period in Lyon was one of the best period of my life: I had the chance to attend very interesting classes. I experienced also great student association's activities that helped me to meet new people and discover a new culture.
