7. Art design major
A great feature of French art colleges is that they require students' language ability, which is mainly reflected in the strictness and extensiveness of the entrance interview, requiring students to express their design concepts and ideas accurately and appropriately. In addition, students need to provide their own design works in China. Examiners mainly judge whether students are qualified for admission or whether their creative style is consistent with the school by their personal thinking ability and feelings expressed in their works. Relatively speaking, students' technical ability is not too high.
Because China's domestic art and design industry pays special attention to French graduates, many students choose to return to China for employment and development after completing their studies.
