Upcoming Erasmus Student at Science Po
Hello! I'm really sorry for my English, I have a B2 level in French but I still feel self conscious, especially in writing. I know that at the moment Strasbourg and France in general are dealing with a moment of deep political unrest, I wish for everyone to be safe, especially the organizers and protesters. I am writing because during the second semester of the 2026/2027 Academic year I will have the pleasure of Studying at the University of Strasbourg, and also taking part in the life of the city (hopefully). I wanted to ask some questions regarding the city and the university. Firstly, I will be following courses from the Science Po branch, specifically European Studies (in french), and I was wondering if anyone on here was also on the same path and wanted to let me know more about their personal experience with it. I'm also looking for a place to stay, and if there are any other upcoming Erasmus students who want to join me in the search or people looking for a roommate let me know! In Italy, where I'm from, I also take part in leftist political action and volunteering, I wonder if there are similar opportunities in Strasbourg, if so I would love to know. Also, are there any cool alternative spots to party or listen to live music? I would like to thank you all in advance for your kind answers, I'm sure that Strasbourg will give me a lot, but I really hope that I will be able to bring something positive back to the city and its communities.
