Closing Ceremony of the Summer School 2019
The 2019 Summer School course has ended, but many memories for both students and lecturers will remain.
On August 5th, 2019, IFI organized a ‘practical experience (field) trip’ for students and lecturers who participated in this year’s "Summer School" 2019. This year’s field trip took place in Hạ Long Bay, Quảng Ninh province, The field trip was part of the cooperation program between IFI and the University of Aix – Marseille, France

Through classroom lessons and the field trip to Ha Long Bay, lecturers & students became more intimately acquainted. There has been some interesting sharing, reflecting on the course, from lecturers and students alike.

Lecturer, Prof. JOLY Joel, University of Aix Marseille also has interesting sharing for students: "Music and movies seem to be the things that help people come closer together. Though, you may not know the music or not ever heard of the film, yet through them, you have a better understanding of French culture and society."
