"For me this was a journey that goes beyond simply studying in front of a computer, it prepares you to stand out and face the future with greater awareness and open-mindedness than your colleagues. Simply the double diploma allows you to discover the world from a different perspective, to approach people completely unknown to you. The best thing about this experience? If you've never imagined writing emails in English to native speaking professors on the other side of the world with a 9 hour difference, then you're in the right place to start. You will completely immerse yourself in the American world and live an experience that will change the way you see things!" --Sofia P.
