FRENCH DAY ON CAMPUS (4/04/23)

Bringing France to your doorstep, with a day full of all things French on the University of Sydney campus during the Sydney Abroad Fair 2023!

What French Days on Campus are all about:

French Days on Campus are festive events organised on Australian university campuses, in collaboration with Campus France Australia, the French Embassy and a broad range of actors in the French-Australian relationship.

Part of the campus is transformed into a “French Quarter” to give the university’s community a chance to discover French higher education, opportunities for funding, mobility, research and innovation, business and employment, as well as language, culture, arts and the sharing of ideas.

In 2023, the event is a collaborative effort between the University of Sydney, the French Embassy, the Alliance Française, the French Australian Chamber of Commerce (FACCI), La French Tech Australia, and student/faculty groups with a special interest in France – the Departments of Languages and/or French Studies, faculty members who collaborate with French partners, French clubs or societies, and the International Departments.

The program for this year:

10am – 3pm – Alongside University of Sydney Abroad Fair, under the French Day pavilion, you will have info booths, food trucks (Frencheese & La Creperie Eiffel) & artistic performances.

3pm – 4pm – Panel “Student opportunities”: Participants (French companies, the French Embassy, Usyd French dept) to present the opportunities for students (mobility, internships, graduate programs) and how they might be working with the University of Sydney.

4pm – 5pm – Panel “Research Collaborations” Participants (Sorbonne Université, Thalès, the French Embassy, AFRAN, La French Tech, USyd School of Physics) to present the opportunities and tools for scientific cooperation with researchers and labs of the University of Sydney.
