France’s Ambassador to India, HE Alexandre Zeigler says, “These Education Fairs organised bi-annually are a great way to bring together the diversity of important basic information from experts who are available in one place for those to know more about study opportunities in France. It is a kind of an orientation process for students as they take further steps toward their goal with our assistance in making their dreams a reality.”
Students can register at http://salons.campusfrance.org/india2016/ to book 20-minute individual interviews with the institutes of their choice. Registration is free and all are welcome.
At the event, students will receive free one-to-one counselling with experienced education advisers and academia from top French institutions. A PhD stand will also provide aspiring doctoral students information on enrolment and funding. Parallel sessions in the form of presentations and talks by experts will provide first-hand information on study requirements for graduate and post-graduate courses, accommodation and scholarships offered by the French government. Indian alumni will also share their experiences to showcase the excellence of French education and the opportunities that come with it.
