"The Paris-Saclay University is one of the best universities in France and is recognized for its excellent teaching quality.

The Master's in Plant Sciences offers a comprehensive program that allows students to choose between two tracks for the second year (Professional or Research) and offers many career opportunities.

The most innovative aspect of the program is its integrative approach, ranging from the molecular level to the entire plant. I also find the courses offered interesting, particularly the inclusion of non-scientific subjects such as “Business Operations.” In addition, the assessments in the form of presentations, often in pairs, are very educational and develop communication and teamwork skills, which are essential for professional integration.

My experience as an international student is going quite well. The university is a place where you meet people from very different backgrounds, which creates a rich and stimulating environment. This promotes dialogue, understanding, and tolerance, aspects that I find very important. 

I haven't decided yet which M2 I would like to enroll in next year but I am attracted to the Professional track “Innovation and Quality of Plant Products” of the M2 in Plant Sciences."
