MEET OUR STUDENTS
I am an Indian student from Pondicherry, but have lived most of my life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As part of my high school education, I learnt French as a second language. I graduated with an International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme from KL and joined ESIGELEC as part of the SALS programme. Here, I brushed up on my French and studied Physics and Mathematics in preparation for the Engineering Programme at ESIGELEC, which I began last year. Rouen is a beautiful city to study and live in. The people are friendly, welcoming and very helpful. Rouen has much to offer in terms of its architecture, its museums, cuisine and diverse culture. A yearly fair and exciting activities throughout the year are a great way to experience the French way of life. Located in Normandy, Rouen has easy access to many nearby cities and historic destinations in France. I’m making the most of my stay here, both academically and personally. Exploring the city, the country and its beautiful culture.

My exchange semester in France was an unforgettable adventure that allowed me to explore new cultures, learn new things and grow as a person. Academically, the classes I took were challenging but enriching. The professors at ESIGELEC were knowledgeable and supportive. I will always cherish the memories and the lessons learned during my exchange semester. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to take part in this programme and would recommend it to students seeking to cross the seven seas!

After having completed my graduation in Computer Science and Engineering, I joined Tata Consultancy Services and worked for 3 years as a Systems Engineer. In August 2023, I took admission in MGCER at Muthoot Institute of Technology and Science to pursue an MSc – Master of Science in ‘Automotive Embedded Systems’. Currently, I’m pursuing my second semester at ESIGELEC School of Engineering in Rouen, France. This journey has been exciting and it has also proved to be a fantastic experience with lots of new things to learn and indulge in! Merci, Rester optimiste!
