Wieso haben Sie sich damals für Ihr Studienfach entschieden?

I always wanted to study law. I also developed a great interest in French culture during my time at school. When I saw that the RUB offered a bilingual degree programme with two degrees, I didn't hesitate and applied for a place straight away.

An welchen Stellen haben sich die Erwartungen an Ihr Studienfach erfüllt, an welchen nicht?

So far, all my expectations have been met. Because there are not that many students, it is possible to support each one individually.

Was macht Ihnen in Ihrem Fach am meisten Spaß?

What I enjoy most is attending the courses that we have together with the students from Tours.

Was war bisher die größte Herausforderung?

At the beginning, it was the French courses that we had with lecturers from Tours that I found particularly challenging. However, it has to be said that the lecturers have adapted to our rhythm and it is not a problem to have difficulties in understanding at the beginning.

Was wollen Sie einmal damit werden?

Lawyer for German companies in France.

Welche Tipps geben Sie den Leuten, die auch überlegen, Ihr Fach zu studieren?

Before starting your studies, it can't hurt to familiarise yourself with the French legal terms. This will save you the initial shock in the French lectures. If you are really interested in France and the EU in general, the degree programme offers a really good opportunity to gain an intensive impression. The internship in France and the stay in Tours alone make the programme different from a traditional law degree. However, it is necessary to have a really good command of written and spoken French, otherwise it will be too difficult.
