I really like this university because I have a great experience with the teachers and my classmates, it's interesting to learn about fashion and arts.
L'Ecole de Nantes design Atlantique propose four master design lab (food, media, digital, city), in those lab you talk about current topic as sustainability, new technologies, inclusivity, ... The master is a mix of research approach and projects in partnership with big French company. In the city design lab where I studied, I liked to work on diverse project (different topic, scale), discovered big problematics of making a city. I liked to work with student from other lab and other university (Polytechnique Angers (France, Oslomet (Norway)), and also the fact they are international master, so you meet foreigners students with different point of view that enrich our projects. The things that could deceived some people is that we are a lot in autonomy class (not so many courses).
