Dear readers,
It is with immense pleasure and great joy that we present to you the first issue of this new academic year's student magazine from the Toulouse School of Economics. As your Editor-in-Chief and Co-Editor-in-Chief, we are delighted to embark on this editorial adventure filled with discoveries, creativity, and engagement.
This September edition holds special significance. Not only does it mark the beginning of a new academic year, but it also coincides with the end of a major event: the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. In our Spotlight, we invite you to dive into this historic event, which was a great moment of unity and celebration for all of France and the world.
Our team of student journalists has worked tirelessly to offer you diverse and relevant content. In addition to the Olympic and Paralympic Games, we tackle essential current issues, such as climate change, global geopolitical tensions and so on. These articles, written with rigor and passion, aim to inform you and provoke thought on the crucial issues of our time.
We also wanted to highlight the experiences and journeys of our peers. You will find an exclusive interview with a PhD student. You will discover testimonials from Alumni, as well as stories from students on internships, gap years, or in the midst of writing their theses. These inspiring stories showcase the diversity and richness of the opportunities offered by our school.
To enhance your reading experience, our section dedicated to Toulouse's best spots will introduce you to the finest cafes and restaurants in the city, selected by our team. We hope these recommendations help you fully enjoy student life in the beautiful “Ville Rose”.
Your feedback is invaluable to us! Please do not hesitate to send us your comments, suggestions, or even your own articles. Our magazine is a space for sharing, and we would be thrilled to publish your contributions in future issues.
We warmly thank you for your continued support and hope you enjoy this issue as much as we enjoyed creating it. Together, let’s open this new chapter of the academic year with enthusiasm and curiosity.
Happy reading and see you soon for new editorial adventures!
