AFAM News:

Student Experience
Ryan Lober, an American student who completed the International M1 last year and is now completing his M2 shares with us a new perspecctive: what is ENSAM like for foreign students. More here.

School News:

Grand Reopening! Biomechanical Lab & Product Conception & Innovation Lab
Both laboratories have ties to the USA, sharing in research projects and exchanges with NYU, Mayo Clinic, Harvard Medical School, and MIT. See photos and learn more about the labs here.

US Rep Visits The School

Recently returning from France, I had the opportunity to meet with school administration, alumni, students, and researchers. There are many exciting and interesting projects happening between the school and the USA, and I am very excited to share them with you in our upcoming newsletters.

Some highlights of my visit include:

Attending Action International with la SOCE
meeting the Direction Generale in Paris and the International Relations team
Visiting the newest center in Metz
Touring the labs in Paris

We often hear about students from the school coming to the USA; for a change, we're sharing the experience of an American student currently in the M2.

I hope you had a happy and fulfilling Thanksgiving!
