Introduction

There it is, the very first article of this blog !

We are the first promotion of the brand new BA of History in English from the University of Toulouse 2 in southern France. Our program includes two years of courses given both in French and in English and a third year to spend abroad in an English-speaking university.
In only a few weeks, we will start our year in new universities (in Canada, England, USA, Scotland, Denmark, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Norway) and we want to stay connected between us, to give news to our teachers back in Toulouse, and to share our experience with our younger colleagues who just finished thier first year and with prospective students.
We have a sister program, a BA of History in Spanish, they too are going abroad for next year in various parts of the world.

Tuesday the 20th of May, the Bureau Des Etudiants (or BDE) of the History in English and Spanish programs held our very first farewell party.

Teachers and students  from both the History in Spanish and in English programs (Year 1 & 2)

 The exams were over for everyone since Monday and we were all eager to celebrate the past two years that we spent together. The BDE booked a cute little tapas restaurant in the city centre and invited all the students from both Year 1 & 2 as well as all the teachers. Not all of them were able to come, but it was still a very enjoyable evening !

All the cute little faces who will spend their next academic year abroad (both History in Spanish and in English)
The new promotion should have already received their acceptance email by now. If any of you is facing difficulties with the enrolment in University, or with student life in Toulouse, you can ask your questions on our Facebook and Twitter pages !
