MSc Farewell Party: Not Goodbye, But See You Soon With More International Career Paths

To celebrate the end of the 2020-21 academic year, EMLV marked the occasion with a farewell party for MSc students and directors. This was an excellent opportunity for EMLV to catch up with its soon-to-be graduates as they embark on the next steps in their international career paths.

In the heart of the 11th district arrondissement in Paris, the Gossima ping-pong bar has turned into a fun, cosy and relaxing space for the EMLV MSc new headquarters for an evening of good conversation and fun with cocktails and planchas.

After a year of business school at EMLV, 22 students from 12 different nationalities met on 18 November for a get together organized by the International Admissions Department and the Devinci Higher Education Welcome Desk.

MSc Farewell party drew graduates from MSc programmes at EMLV Business School: Digital Business Analytics, International Business, International Finance. The relaxed atmosphere encouraged alumni and staff to easily mingle and share stories and anecdotes about being a foreign student in Paris. There has also been ample discussion around France’s current job market, career trends in Paris, the booming French Tech scene, and how Paris’s unique multicultural blend shapes professional life.
