By studying at one of the GEM schools you will have the opportunity to experience the multiple riches of the country from its historical heritage and tradition of fine cuisine, wines and fashion to its innovative cutting-edge technological achievments.
France is famous for its cuisine, its wide variety of cheeses and its wines such as Burgundy, Bordeaux and Champagne.
Beyond gastronomy, France has forged over the centuries a solid reputation in the luxury goods industry. Whether it may be haute couture (Chanel, Dior, Jean-Paul Gautier or Yves Saint-Laurent), or perfume (Guerlain, Lancôme, Chanel), a certain idea of luxury still rings as French throughout the world.
