About the city 🌇

The island is characterized by incredible variety and colorfulness. Large parts of the island is covered in sugar cane fields, but you'll also find mountains with green-clad slopes, and no matter where you are on the island, it's never far from the crystal clear waters.

Mauritius is an ancient French colony with a population of 1.2 million, and french influence is evident on the island, both in local gastronomy, architecture and street names that sound both tropical and French. Over the years, many writers, painters and other artists have visited the island and have been inspired by the beautiful nature and laid-back atmosphere. Mauritius' capital, Port Louis, is known for its French colonial-style architecture, its waterfront with both shopping and restaurants, and its large and colorful market.

The local food traditions and the island's complex cultural heritage are clearly tasted in the food you will find in Mauritius. Here you can have a taste of Indian, Chinese, Creole and of course French flavours – and of course the sea around Mauritius is also a clear inspiration.

What the students say

"Going on exchange has been the biggest highlight of my degree. Not only do you experience university in another country, you open yourself up to new challenges, new people and new cultures. It also builds on characteristics that employers love such as cultural awareness, leadership and confidence" - Lauren S.
