“The Université Paris II Panthéon Assas provided us with substance to fill our dreams. The law degree was adapted to the Mauritian context and for students like me who wants to practice law in Mauritius, this is the best alternative.
My friends and I have been studying various branches of the law which allowed us to see that studying law is not only to become a lawyer but can lead us to far more than the classic route.“
