Best university in a safe town.
Tips: Strong academics in a very safe, quiet town. Students should be ready for a calm lifestyle and be proactive about internships and learning basic German. The transition is smooth with a cultural shift toward punctuality, rules and independence. Scholarships like Deutschlandstipendium (€300/month), merit based scholarships and also need based depending on the semester are available.
Likes (Safety): Well lit streets, reliable public transport, emergency numbers with quick response, student support services, and strict laws ensure safety. TUM also offers student counselling, emergency contacts and accommodation support !! Straubing is a small, quiet Bavarian town with very low crime rates and a strong sense of community. Germany is considered one of the safest countries for students, including international students. The city feels calm, walkable, and safe even late in the night, especially compared to big cities. Wouldn't say bad but an awkward experience is that occasional staring while walking on the road or in a supermarket, but no serious safety concerns or hostile incidents have happened till now.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The program has strong academic and research value, but Straubing has a limited local biotech industry. Graduates usually need to relocate to major hubs (Munich, Berlin, Heidelberg) and competition is high, especially without German language proficiency. Also, Germany has hundreds of biotech & pharma companies that can sponsor visas via the EU Blue Card. Typical roles include Research Associate, Bioprocess Engineer, and QC or Regulatory roles with salaries around €20,000–€50,000/year for MSc graduates.

I gained a lot of knowledge during my education.
Tips: They need to research properly about the course properly. In my opinion, don't select a university based on its ranking in Germany. Select the course that is more interesting to you and learn. Before selecting a course search for career opportunities in the field.
Likes (Public transportation): Due to the Deutschland ticket, it's affordable and people can use any time of public transportation. With this ticket, I have travelled all around Germany at free of cost. Also public transportation is really good and it's almost on time. So especially students can travel all around Germany for free of cost.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Due to the economic crisis and language barriers, companies are not hiring people. Student who have passed need to go back after their job seeking visas. Also, due to a lack of integration with the German culture, which is a major problem. Normally, after education, they are offered a research assistant position in universities and a research institute after Master's degree.

A hub of research, diversity and excellence.
Tips: I'm grateful to be studying in one of the best universities in the world. TUM offers world class education and professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable. You can also apply for scholarships if you're planning to study here. I myself didn't avail any for TUM but I got an Erasmus scholarship for my semester abroad exchange in Austria. I'm content with whatever course I'm studying. I've grown personally and academically after coming here. The only thing is that searching for a part time job is hard if you don't know German. It has been a good experience so far for me.

Good opportunities and friendly campus.
Tips: Be ready to invest in learning beyond the syllabus. Required knowledge for an exam or presentation is not limited to the lecture presentations, but self study as well. Look for scholarships in advance to avail them. Finding the right balance between academics, job and social life could be a bit confusing in the beginning but prioritising is the key. Mental health care is a must. Having a good group of friends and classmates would play a way important role in shaping you're life abroad away from home.
Likes (Safety): Having been on that campus, there has never been a moment of unsafe feeling. There are quick helplines in case of any kind of emergency. There was a case where I forgot my mobile phone on the train, but thankfully, the person who found the phone informed us and arranged for a place to collect it from.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time jobs on campus would depend on your profile from previous degrees and experiences and language flexibility. There are boards for 'Job postings' in the canteen, which would have part time, internship and even PhD postings. There are also databases for internships guiding us through the departments, universities and institutes that we could explore, not only nationally but also internationally. To have a good balance between academics and part -time jobs/internships, on campus opportunities are definitely easier, especially for the initial 1 or 2 semesters, where academics could be a bit intense. Average pay for these jobs would vary, from 13.5 to 15 euros or more depending on the type of job, whether in-campus or outside. For off-campus part time jobs are available and making use of all resources as possible, online sites, job fairs, or even posters in stores that would need a part-time employee.

An inclusive and engaging learning environment.
Tips: The transition was not easy initially but I adapted myself really well within the next few months. Right from the change of food, weather, to even teaching methodology and the way they asked questions in the exam. I did not pay any tuition fees except the student union fees, which were around 75 euros.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are very accessible and friendly. We are encouraged to share our inputs freely. Regarding the teaching methodology that I find the most unique is the way the faculty involves everyone in the discussion. In terms of nationality, it is very diverse.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Being a vegetarian I was a little sceptical but there are lots of restaurants, cafes and bakeries around the university. I prefer cooking myself. But at the same time, you get to taste the best pretzels, Berliners and croissants. It's a blend of unique and traditional cooking that one gets to see in Germany.
