I spent last week in Prague at the VSE to follow what we call a blocked seminar. Here is the exact definition of what a CEMS blocked seminar really is:
"The weeklong Block Seminars are organised by each of the CEMS Schools . They are academically and culturally intensive and the experience is the ideal starting point into the programme. Seminars are managed by interdisciplinary, inter-university teacher teams and provide the opportunity to debate and discuss innovative management topics from different cultural perspectives. Topics and teaching methods vary depending on the organising school and interfaculty team, and CEMS students are expected to acquire in-depth knowledge of their chosen topic in this very short period of time."
Of course the best thing about CEMS events is always networking. In Prague I met for example Italians (who will be at the Bocconi when I will be there!), a Danish guy found of Poland, my roommate was Dutch studying in Copenhagen, then a Polish girl coming coming to LLN in the spring, Czesh students of course and for the first time, someone from HEC (n'est-ce pas Julien?) who did his "classes préparatoires" in the same lycée where I was in 4e!
That's Europe!!!
