MASTER-U EXPERIENCE
The MUX Is an educational experience rooted in Ubuntu. Ubuntu is a Bantu term meaning "humanity - I am because we are - humanity to others - the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all of humanity".
Context
In a context of post-health crisis, societal, social and economic crisis, Universities need to commit to pioneering experience centred on the Human. Amidst the COVID-19 global pandemic where physical distancing and remote education have become necessary, higher education students are experiencing more anxiety, stress, anger, fear and depressive symptoms (Torales, O’Higgins, CastaldelliMaia, & Ventriglio, 2020).
Challenge
Online learning has had an impact on student life, and therefore on the overall experience. During this period, it has been more difficult for students to socialise and connect with like-minded people through virtual classes. - etudiant.lefigaro.fr
Students have been struggling to prepare for their future since spring 2020, and reported a drop in learning critical skills like "preparing for my future career", "working well in a team" and “expanding my comfort zone”.
Opportunity
The classic model is challenged and the offer evolves towards soft skills. - etudiant.lefigaro.fr
Therefore social connection and spaces for dialogue & reflection are more important than ever. Universities need to organise inspiring, impactful, innovative and inclusive experiences focused on a bold, unique and personalised experience.

Purpose
MUX is the affirmation in action of responsible values, humanism, audacity, sharing and commitment. Each series of workshops aims to improve self-leadership, team spirit, development, individual and collective well-being of participants. MUX is a powerful communication tool, which allows the universities to demonstrate to the participants and the community its desire to differentiate itself from others, to be a human structure and to give meaning to its educational experience.

It is an African “village” of cooperation, interdependence, trust and pride in humanity, in each other.
Innovative
It is an invitation to see the larger perspective, to decide to explore the big picture of what is happening in our life and/or in the world around us.

It is an invitation to celebrate our diversity, our singularities and the values that we represent as human beings. It is the discovery of “We” through the “I”.
