AFAM community manager Albina Patou-Chebykina visited the school in November 2021. Every year AFAM community manager visits the school to meet the school teams and inform students about our programs. The exception was made in 2020 because of the Covid-19 spread.
During the one-week November visit Albina met students and faculty members on Paris, Angers and Cluny campuses.
The first day of her visit Albina met with la SOCE representative Cyril Poinsot (Cl 193), former International Projects VP at la SOCE and current international coordinator at ParisTech Alumni.
Cyril mentioned the importance of AFAM's role in students' lives: "For more than 10 years, AFAM has been a helpful support for our Arts & Métiers students attracted by the US. Whatever their target (studies, internships...), AFAM can help while preparing their project, and during their stay."
