Michèle’s experiences abroad during her studies, among them semesters at New York University and Université Paris Cité during her masters in North American studies at FU, led her to pursue work in exchange programs. The contact and friendship with students from all over the world, the introduction to new university systems, and the unique experience of settling into and discovering new places convinced Michèle of the importance of the cooperation between universities worldwide, which provides students with opportunities and opens the world to them. She also realized how much she liked working with these students, be that in form of academic advising or by helping to create a pleasant experience during their stay.
