MSc Computer Engineering - Batch of 2027

Review of Uni Heidelberg
Tips: This is a great University with a variety of programs, ranging from medical and engineering to arts. However, be prepared for administrative and bureaucratic hurdles, competitive and scarce housing market. The transition will also require you to adapt to a very punctual system.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Accessibility is never an issue as the Proof/student ratio is very high. German universities are not really about teaching, but rather about learning. Not diverse, but diversity should not matter in this case. It is more about the quality of research done by the Prof's group.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There are primarily 3 Campus of university Heidelberg. Some are in the city centre; some are not. However, the issue is mostly about the city itself. Heidelberg doesn't have the best public transport, and mostly suffers from decentralised suburbs. So, if you don't live within Heidelberg, or in a part that doesn't have good public transport, you would face some issues.

Masters in Physics - Batch of 2027

An invigorating experience.
Tips: Physics at Heidelberg is prestigious but demands total academic independence. That is, there is no spoon-feeding, and one must manage their own exam schedules along with their classes. Advice would be to start your housing search months before you arrive here, as the market is tough. Also, learn basic German before arriving. The Sunday shutdown was a massive shift from India's hustle. I also had to adapt to German directness, which is efficient rather than rude.
Likes (Part time work): On-campus HiWi are easy to get by, especially in the experiential sector. It isn't easy to manage studies along with HiWi, but it also largely depends on the major that a student is planning to take. The average payout may depend on the task as well as the funding of that particular group, which might be between 300-600 euros. There are also mini-jobs available for students, which are also a good option to consider.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian restaurants are hard to find and also super expensive. I usually cook at home because all the necessary ingredients are easily available at the supermarket or Indian stores. Although there are places around that host Indian buffets for affordable prices, and also, there are also communities that engage in making Indian food.

Challenging course with a good learning environment.
Tips: The coursework can be intensive and might require effort to perform well. I was also offered a scholarship by the university to which I had applied. As for Germany, I am still getting used to the culture and language.
Likes (Internships): As the university has a good reputation, it is possible to get a good internship. The university also offers internships to work inside some of the labs of the university. These internships will be dependent on the field of your study and you will be selected on the basis of your expertise.
Dislikes (Student Life): The course offered requires a good amount of self study. There are 2 lectures/course per week and 1 exercise/lec for each course, a student will have 15 hours of lecture/exercise/week and on top of that they have to study on their own to get the best grades. What I enjoyed the most about the college life is what the campus offers. Great library, communal space, variety of food. There are also a lot of clubs on campus to fulfil your interests.

A beautiful adventure awaits.
Tips: Germany is a beautiful country, to begin with, and Heidelberg is the cherry on the top. There aren't many cultural socks I faced while coming from India except that people here are strict regarding the laws and the rules. There are many unsaid rules such as you have to let people offboard before you onboard, you are supposed to carry your ID cards wherever you are travelling etc. I am very satisfied with the course and the country I am in and would ask everyone to definitely check it out as one of your options.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The quality of faculty is top notch especially in Europe, with scientists around the world and professors highly educated and qualified, it is one of the best universities to study in. The teaching methods are similar to what is followed in other European universities but the quality every professor has is phenomenal.
Dislikes (Value for money): For every university in Baden Wurttemberg, an international student from a non-EEA country has to pay a 1500 Euros semester contribution including Indians. This fee is different from the semester fee of 151 Euros and I feel that this is a bit expensive considering the other universities in other states. Also, you have to buy a 27 Euros monthly pass as you do not get a Deutschland ticket at this university.

Heidelberg: An enchanting student city
Tips: Joining the University of Heidelberg was one of the best decisions I took in my life. It's the biggest hub of astronomy in the whole of Germany, with more than 400 researchers working in various fields of astronomy. The university provides a lot of majors to specialize in, which makes it very diverse. One of the university's most attractive features is its very flexible system when it comes to taking courses. The university doesn't impart a fixed curriculum to students; instead, the choice of courses is left to students' discretion. The professors are active researchers who impart lectures while keeping a research mentality in mind. They also respect international students and often advise students to make the most out of university life. They are very approachable, and students can do research assistantships in their group for credit or money. Students can also do various part-time jobs easily without risking their education and can earn a good living. Germany's infrastructure is brilliant which actively supports a fit and healthy lifestyle. Though there is a bit of a housing crisis in Heidelberg, good planning in advance can help deal with this issue. The university also hosts multiple student canteens and a big central library, which are open till 1 a.m. The campus provides multiple sports facilities and classes, including skiing and word-fighting. The city also hosts multiple advanced research institutes like Max Planck Institutes and EMBL, allowing students to get research experience through internships. Heidelberg itself is a small, beautiful student city with a river flowing through the city and multiple scenic trekking routes all around the city. Heidelberg is only a few minutes away from Mannheim, providing brilliant connectivity to the rest of Germany and to the majority of the neighbouring countries. This also allows us to explore the rest of Europe during our semester break.
Likes (Safety): Heidelberg is one of the safest student cities in Germany. It has considerably fewer shady places compared to other big cities, and public transport is nice, ensuring safe passage throughout the city. There is a police station at all the major points in the city, and police patrols are regular. Apart from the facilities, the inhabitants of the city are very responsible and caring. I have personally never witnessed a bad situation or crime in my 2 years of living here, and I have also walked freely in the city, even at 2 a.m.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Heidelberg hosts a variety of Indian restaurants ranging from North Indian to South Indian food, which cost 20 euros per person for a good dinner. I prefer cooking myself as I can get all the ingredients very easily, including all the masalas, from the Indian stores and it's cost-effective.

Good faculty and provide best internships.
Tips: I've got to know this college from a close friend of mine. Initially I found a few difficulties in culture, language, etc, but soon I got habituated to it. I availed a scholarship, I'm completely satisfied with this university and my favourite course and the country is awesome.
Likes (Indian Food): All restaurants are good, but I've tried only about five near the university. The prices are above average and some foods are overpriced. It's okay and worth it if the food is good. I mostly cook with my friend in my room, and we occasionally go out for dinner.
Dislikes (Internships): Professors and seniors guidance was helpful in finding internships relevant to my field of study. Because they are relevant, I developed an interest and performed my internship well, the chances of getting a job at the company are high.

Great university with modern facilities and big campus.
Tips: I learned a lot, made some great friends, and gained some valuable life experience. And the campus was beautiful too. The university is a public research university in the city of Heidelberg in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. There are a lot of cultural shifts, so it is up to you how well you adjust and retain your values while you adjust so that you don’t feel lost. You can obviously search for your type of people and will surely find them, but it just takes a little effort. I would definitely recommend Heidelberg University to any student looking for a high-quality education.
Likes (Student Life): My peer group was fabulous and there were so many opportunities, just looking for the right one that suits you the most. It was just what I was looking for. I am amazed that not many people know about it, but you can apply for a lot of scholarships there too.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transportation may take some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it you will find it to be quite nice. It is affordable too, but use your money wisely, and it may be a good idea to pick someone you trust to be your guardian.

Amazing university, vibrant campus and a fun student life.
Tips: When considering this university, students should be aware of the structure for studying here. Some students I know came here and forgot they came for the primary purpose of studying, and now concentrate on part-time work instead. Instead of focusing on part-time jobs, you should concentrate on your studies. In addition to that, students should also be outgoing and not just stay home, even if they have recordings of classes. This will help students maintain contact with their professors and their subject material. There are many restaurants here, with cuisine options from Arabian to Indian. Personally, I prefer to cook, as it's cheaper, but I can't be sure of the general pricing, as each restaurant will have different prices. I'd say it will roughly be 20 dollars per meal. There aren't many post-study jobs here. It's difficult for freshers, mostly for graduates. I don't have a list of job roles or salary packages, but I can say that the roles vary from person to person. Some people might get a graduate role, while others might get an experienced role.

University of Canterbury provides many on campus events for students.
Tips: It is hard to get a job in my field because there are not a lot of job opportunities available. Also, there are students from different countries, so there will be some culture shock. There are no scholarships available for my course. The people are kind and welcoming, especially if you respect their culture. The elderly are friendly and open to having warm conversations. Christchurch is a quiet and peaceful place, and the people enjoy that kind of life. I feel safe on and off campus, and most of the campus is open to students so they can study whenever they want. Overall, I am satisfied with the campus, the country, and the university.
Dislikes (Internships): Unfortunately, internships are not part of the curriculum here like they are in India. This makes it challenging to gain hands-on experience, especially since most employers require knowledge of New Zealand laws and standards. In India, internships are available at any firm, but here most internships are through agencies and students have to pay for them.

A challenging but fulfilling and rewarding experience.
Tips: It is very important to understand that moving to a new country can be very challenging and overwhelming. The way life works and the processes are different to what you are used to. I think it was really important for me to try and learn the way people live their lives here since you can't change their way of living, so you need to be open to adapting. However, you should never feel like you are alone. Especially if you are moving to Christchurch for University, there is a whole network of people that you can get in contact with, and there are many different clubs to join. Therefore, you mustn't be scared to go out and meet new people. Embrace the new challenges. For me, joining clubs and/or sports teams is the best way to meet new, like-minded people. Furthermore, in terms of scholarships and funding, I managed to get an international student scholarship that allowed me to live in the halls in my first year for free. There are many scholarships that you can apply for, however, you need to make sure that the scholarship applies to international students. In terms of funding, I was fortunate enough that my parents were able to give me a weekly allowance that enabled me to live my day-to-day life. However, since I am studying engineering and playing cricket, I was also able to find jobs that allowed me to make money over the summertime. As long as you work within your visa restrictions, there is a lot of opportunity to find jobs etc. The university experience has been really amazing and I have been able to learn really cool things, both within the university and through daily life. While my course is very challenging, I have learnt some amazing things and could not be more grateful to be learning high-quality, practical knowledge that can be applied in the real world. New Zealand in general is a beautiful place with amazing people and beautiful views, you cannot say too much bad about this country.
Likes (Safety): Christchurch and New Zealand in general is a very safe city and country. The people are very nice and helpful. Although there are crimes like stealing from cars, as I have experienced, it is very easy to navigate through life and I have rarely had trouble trying to fit in within the community. Especially when joining the university, I felt that everyone was extremely supportive and always looking to make new friends. Therefore, the overall UC community is amazing.
Dislikes (Value for money): New Zealand in general is an expensive place to live. And, with international student feels, it makes it extremely expensive. While I have been fortunate enough that my parents can support me through my undergraduate study, a lot of students would not have the same luxury. It seems quite unjustifiable that as an international student, you pay more than 5x the price for the same courses and resources that a local student would get. I had already been in New Zealand for 2 years before joining the university and had a good network of friends already. Therefore, I did not need support as an international student as I am sure international students need.

Practically oriented in every perspective.
Tips: The enrollment process at the University of Canterbury was easy. For the initial days, it was obvious I felt cultural differences but after getting used to it, it felt like a home away from home. I was awarded a Dean's Award scholarship. I had a good academic score in my Bachelor and previous work experience helped in get the scholarship which was around 5000 NZD. I am fully satisfied with my university, course and the country - New Zealand.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transportation in Christchurch is excellent. It is well connected to the campus, and even towns 40-50 km from Christchurch are connected with good frequency of timings. The bus is the primary mode of transportation, and fares are subsidized for students at a rate of 1 NZD.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are some jobs on campus like Tutor, Research Assistant, and part-time in some cafes around the campus. Talking about Off-campus jobs there are plenty of them but you must have relevant work experience to easily get those. Academics are easily manageable with the job. Most of the jobs pay the minimum wage in New Zealand which is around 23 NZD.

Learning with fun, and interaction with different communities and people.
Tips: Don't think! Just come to the University of Canterbury. It's the best university. The university provides everything here. All the faculty are here to guide us from scratch. The university has different departments for students to help. The university is very active in terms of hosting events and helping students.
Likes (Indian Food): Hygiene is followed. Quality of food is delivered. Here maximum options are non-vegetarian, but I am a vegetarian. So, I don't eat much from the outside restaurants. I am an Indian and close to my accommodation. There is an Indian restaurant where I go to and enjoy my meal fortnightly. The price is not expensive because if one is earning then he/she can afford eating outside. I prefer to cook by myself and enjoy my meal.
Dislikes (Value for money): It's expensive as compared to other universities. But the fees is justified as we can see that the course offers 180 credits towards our degree, which is good. The professors are very supportive. They are always there to help and encourage us to do good. My overall experience has been the best here.

Great university and great exposure to learn and grow.
Tips: I was concerned about the transition from India to New Zealand, but it wasn't that tough. The university and students made me feel very welcome and helped me get into the system. I applied for a scholarship and secured it, which was very helpful. Students should firmly keep an eye on scholarships as they would be reflected in the mark sheet and would be helpful in future job placements.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I got permanent residency in New Zealand after completing my course and getting a job there. I love the culture and the country. It is peaceful and accepting. If you have the opportunity to settle in New Zealand, you should definitely try it.
Dislikes (Public transportation): I gave public transportation a low rating because bus service can be quite limited, especially late at night and on weekends. However, bus fares are very reasonable, and using a combination of public transportation and bicycles can make travel time faster.

Perfect blend of all the things that a student may need.
Tips: The college is very good overall. There is always a cultural shift when a student studies internationally, but after some time he/she settles. I got a scholarship of 5500$ and it was provided to me on merit basis by the university and it was called Dean's Award Scholarship. Overall, I am totally satisfied with the university and the country.
Likes (Student Life): One can take part in a lot of activities in the campus. In every week or two, there is some event happening. There is a separate committee for organizing events for students. Also, the campus is very beautiful and well planned. We can get everything that we may need.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are ample of jobs, but we require a relevant experience for them, which is difficult for an entry level international student. So as an international student, I am giving a rating of 3. If we got skills in the relevant background, then we can get jobs.

A pretty good university with very limited opportunities due to recession.
Tips: There is quite a bit of adjustment when comparing the education system from back in India. In India, as long as we get good marks at the end of the year exams, we get a good overall mark on our report cards. However, here you have to work hard and get good grades in each and every assignment because the amount of weight they carry in your final grades is a lot.
Likes (Safety): The city is pretty safe as I haven't heard much violence against anyone. There is little racism, if any at all, against other ethnicities. There is not any bad experience in particular that I have in the city that I could share. The people here are quite friendly as well which is also good. However, from what I have heard from friends, there is a bit of exploitation done when someone is sponsoring your residence visa if they are your workplace as well. However, the owners in those cases are also mostly Indians.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Not many companies offer sponsor visas as far as I know. The main reason for my rating of 2 is that the current job market is not very good. The country is in recession and there is an acute shortage of jobs available in a lot of the fields. Quite a lot of the students need to move to cities or even countries to find a good job. The wages/cost of living ratio is also not great for it to be considered a good option to work.

Modern college with helpful professors and green environment.
Tips: Studies are taken seriously but professors are supportive and helpful. Students get used to their studies after seeing the competition. The country is very beautiful and the infrastructure of the college is modern. Course fee is justified nothing more. Accommodation will cost around 8 lakhs/ year roughly which I don't think is much. Prefer this country over Canada and it is worth it.
Likes (Safety): The country is very safe and people are polite and respectful. The Maori tribesmen are also very welcoming and want others to know about their culture. So far I haven't experienced any bad experiences and I don't think any of my friends have either. 10/10 for safety.
Dislikes (Internships): GoinGlobal portals is famous in student communities for getting good internships. Sometimes there are recruitment drives across campus or in Christchurch some fares are organized especially for international students. Be aware, make connections, subscribe to newsletters and definitely a good internship opportunity is seeking you!
