field of study that you are passionate, well determine your
career goal, regardless of previous school, personality, interests and attitudes. Studying for love and
vocation is one
guarantees your success.
Have ambition and courage:
Be ambitious, courageous and optimistic, and indicate what you want to do and be (be realistic!). If ambition is a generative
force of motivation, and courage, is the weapon to deal with various obstacles, hope this one true power source that we cleared the path. The student must always arm themselves with the triplet: ambition -
Courage - Hope to make it a tool of success and excellence.
Overcoming language barriers:
The fact that most of the disciplines of
higher education are taught, the student is obliged to master this language from the first months of his
academic career, through
intensive training in parallel. The student is expected to adopt a robust schedule of training to improve its
ability to communication and
language skills, by opening up to other languages (especially English). If language is the medium of knowledge, his mastery further facilitates both the
acquisition of knowledge and access to the
world of employment.

plan activities. The revisions must be made on time, and the solution "to postpone" is avoided. Be efficient, and looking for the right
time ratio / competence (differs from one person to another, and depends on our will, living conditions,
legal status ...), and try to drop the
pleasure of work, of review. You must be a master of your time, and
avoid parasites (visiting a friend, family problem ...) especially during
periods of exam preparation.
Attend classes:
Never miss a course except in case of necessity. Even if you are a
course material, always try to take notes and highlight important points raised by
Professor. Attend the course is far from being limited to
physical presence, but rather, concentrate and listen carefully. If ever you have difficulty understanding some of course, do not hesitate to ask your teacher.
Not to be locked:

balanced normal life of the student. Pay attention to your physical and
psychological health and
exercise regularly other
parallel activities (
sports,
leisure,
associative action ...). On the other hand, devote time to study is not satisfactory to ensure your
success professional and social, then try to attend seminars, conferences, meetings ... to enrich your
relationship network (winners, professors, experts, entrepreneurs ... ), and also stay tuned for news and reports of your
socio-economic environment (
learn daily) through various means: the
Internet,
TV,
Radio,
Newspapers ...
Working in groups:
Get ready to conquer the
labor market, in which you will require to carry out your mission in close interaction with your organization (managers, staff, customers, users ...). Learn while working in groups gradually, to develop or consolidate his open mind.
This forces the group members to communicate to defend themselves and convince others, and their ability to: share their views, challenge their ideas, be justified by arguments,
learn to cooperate ... it's training in the conduct of disparities between
group members, disagreements see conflicts arising.
Avoid selfishness and individualism, and the maximum share documents and information regarding your training with your colleagues. This exchange will be an asset to any promotion.
