Spotlight : Mobility Concerns

Competition in the French railroad market

By: Cappuccia Léo

The French rail sector is regularly the target of criticism: prices are increasing, and delays are sometimes important. Thus, the modal share of rail in domestic passenger transport has stagnated for several years. In the meantime, transport represented 30% of the domestic greenhouse emissions in 2021. In order to reduce these emissions and to improve social fairness...

Why is Reducing Aviation Emissions so Challenging?

By: Guedez Jérémie

As air travel is set to become a norm for millions, why is it so hard for planes to go green? Aviation only accounts for 2.5% of global carbon emissions, which some may consider a modest share. However, with increasing demand due to the growth of income in developing countries and the faster decarbonization in other sectors such as railroad, road transport, or shipping, aviation’s share of global emissions will grow...

Airbus Vs Boeing: A historical duopoly

By: Tazi Narjis

The early 1970s saw the creation of Airbus, a symbol of Franco-German cooperation at first, then European collaboration with the arrival of Spain and the United Kingdom. The creation of Airbus was a response to the dominance of American aircraft manufacturers in the post-World War II aviation market. Despite a difficult start the 1980s saw the beginning of a breakthrough for Airbus, with the introduction of the A310 and then the A320. In the 1990s...

A new (temporary) wall in the heart of the Schengen Area

By: Mondelli Martin

On September the 16th 2024 Europe woke up with an unusual piece of news: international borders were reintroduced in Germany.

Their Journey Since TSE & Students' Voices

Nicolas Le Gall Data Scientist At Aqsone

As of today, I am a Data Scientist. This is my main role in Aqsone. So, I help our customers to exploit at the best their data. It goes from animating workshop to gather all the need and expectations to deliver value through the whole panel that Data Science and AI offer (from dashboards to complex models delivering interactive results). 

Nathan Geneletti Former Board Member

I was the treasurer of the TSEconomist during the 2021-2022 academic year, in my Master 2. The year before, while working on a project of environmental magazine during my gap year, I reached out to the TSEconomist board, and they were quite helpful, giving me great advice. I had also already contributed to the magazine as an author, writing an article about the link between economic growth and fossil fuels.

Hélène Lechêne, Former Board Member

I was Deputy Editor at The TSEconomist for a year in 2021-2022. I started to be involved in The TSEconomist association when I was in L3, from then, I wrote and proofread some articles regularly for two years. When in M2 I got the opportunity of joining the board, I felt like it was exciting to understand what was behind the scenes of the association: how can a Google Drive turn into a printed journal.

Cecile Brajou, Exchange Testimony

Trinity College met all my criteria when choosing a destination. Indeed, I wanted to discover a part of Europe I was completely unfamiliar with (I had never been to Ireland nor the UK, and even if you might not think so, you feel the cultural difference when moving there) and immerse myself in an English-speaking country for a full year.

Carmen Valette, Exchange Student At Charles University

I initially wanted to go to Boğaziçi Üniversitesi in Istanbul, Turkey. Unfortunately, due to political tensions in the country, the professors advised against it. My second choice was Prague, and I am delighted I got to spend the year there.

Louis Malissard, Internship Testimony

Today, I'm going to talk about an idea I had of the world of work as a student, which turned out to be wrong during my gap year in Paris, and I remind you that this only sums up my personal feelings. 

My subject is loneliness in the workplace. In other words...


Marine Bellay, Personal Project Testimony

I am Marine Bellay, a second-year student in the Economics and Competition Law Master’s program, and I had the opportunity to take a gap year for personal projects between my third year of undergraduate studies and the first year of my master’s program.
