M.Sc. in Data Science - Batch of 2027
4
Student oriented city and university.
Tips: The transition in culture was great here. It took a little time to adjust to this culture, but it was fun and interactive. I wasn't able to avail any scholarship, since the competition was very high. MS in Data Science is a new course introduced recently, it will be improved in future, but for now it's okay. The only problem in this country is the language barrier. If you are fluent in the language, you are good to go.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus for Informatics is not well connected to the city. It is on the outskirts of the city. While the campus of Arts, Sociology, etc, is inside the city. Everything related to travelling in this city is covered by the DB pass provided by the University. The same pass can be used to travel throughout the country. It's convenient, and only a few public universities provide a Deutschland semester pass. We pay a semester contribution of 450 euros each semester and each students get a DB pass for the entire semester.
Dislikes (Internships): Internship opportunities are difficult to find here in this university because a large numbers of students are aiming for it and the availability of the internships are limited. The competition for internship opportunities are quite high and difficult. The available internships are relevant to my field of study.

M.Sc. in Data Science - Batch of 2026
4
Uni-Marburg is a good college if you are more of a research oriented person.
Tips: I have definitely transitioned a lot. The education system is not as easy as it is in India. It is pretty much more research-oriented. There was a big cultural shift. Starting with drinking water, public transport, dressing sense, strong cultural pride, etc. Mine is a public university, and so no scholarship exists. I applied through university-assist portals. I'm pretty much satisfied with the study part, but about the job, I have no comment yet.
Likes (Public transportation): The best thing is the transportation facilities here. Be it the Deutsche Bahn or local buses, provided by RMV, everything is pretty much connected to each other. Available modes of transport are cycle, buses, trains, etc. Pretty much all services are included in the tuition fee.
Dislikes (Internships): You actually have to do things on your own. It is pretty much the same in all universities, be it public or private. You just have to learn the language to fit in. There are relevant internships for Data Science students. But the only thing is the language barrier.

Professional and helpful.
Tips: The university welcomes every international student with open arms. They conduct a lot of initial events to make us comfortable. The academic staff is well-experienced and know how to work with international students. Adjoining the university is a science park that hosts a lot of companies, where one can find student jobs.

Great study fun balance, long term friendships and life changing experiences.
Tips: Studies would not be easy but the faculty is very helpful and the resources are good. If you put in consistent work and actually engage with your peers, it gets much easier. There are enough international students to mingle with however, Germans are also very kind and, contrary to popular belief, quite friendly. You can get scholarships if you have good grades. Very satisfied with the experiences.
Likes (Student Life): Despite being a small city, there were many cultural events, festivals, etc. The time tables are not heavy so you get time to work on your studies, reports, and projects during the day itself. The course structure was very well organised and more emphasis was placed on projects that brought flexibility as well as accountability for the work one did. As for the city, summer is amazing. Student dorms are very well equipped and there are many city-wide discounts for students.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs are limited. In the city, language can be a barrier and it is a small city, so fewer options. There are more waitressing, restaurant, and such jobs than your course-related ones. The payout, though, is not bad and can help you manage expenses.

A stressful but worth it experience.
Tips: It was pretty difficult with the weather and the course was very mathematical and technical, so it was pretty tough to cope. The classes go above your head, but with adequate discipline, one can manage them. The country is somewhat unwelcoming at the beginning but then you have to socialise and understand the shift.
Likes (Value for money): The education is of high quality. The M.Sc. teaches what most universities can't offer. I have compared the course curriculum and I believe mine offered the best as well. The technical understanding you sound in the field and the work you put in, is worth it.
Dislikes (Internships): The possibility of finding one is very difficult despite a job fair being organised. The market is also keen on you knowing good German at least B2. Finding a position is tough. There are many positions but it's always tough to get one. You should try to apply as early and as much.

4.1
Amazing exposure with unique challenges.
Tips: It's easier if you learn German to connect with local. I got the Stibet scholarship. Usually, it's possible to get when doing a masters thesis. The university is great. Some departments have very high standards and it's difficult to connect with them unless you do exceptional work.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is well connected and the city is small. Student dorms can connect to the campus within 30 minutes. It's possible to find many accommodations around the city specifically for students. Usually the programme helps u find one for 2 to 3 years. Post that you need to find your own.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The market is a little tough. Usually you can do a research assistant quite easily where u did a thesis but it requires a little luck to get hire. Job roles in QA RF engineering, Digital comms and embedded systems and AI can open up but you need to do more apart from a Masters.

Affordable, rigorous and career defining.
Tips: Students should know that a transition period is required to adapt to the German way of life. As an Indian I had to adjust to a culture that is strictly punctual and efficiency-based. I applied to Ulm University independently and secured a tuition scholarship. This has been a life-changing decision; I am deeply satisfied with the course and the opportunities available here for genuine students.
Likes (Value for money): I secured a full tuition scholarship. The curriculum is strict and industry oriented and strong post-study job placement. Dormitory and food costs are manageable and affordable. The value for money is outstanding.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships here are voluntary rather than mandatory which gives flexibility. If you are willing to put in the effort to apply by yourself, the opportunities are accessible. It is a good environment for self-starters who want experience.

Study at an interdisciplinary research focused university.
Tips: Students should learn basic life skills like cooking before starting their international studies, as it helps a lot with proper nutrition and health during the time of studies. Eating out is a difficult option as food outside is expensive. One can avail scholarships like Deutschstipendium and DAAD stipendium scholarships, however it will partially help with living expenses as it is around 250-300 per month. The university is good with a focus on interdisciplinary research.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is directly connected to the city with both bus and tram options. Public transport is really good in this mid size tier 2 city. A monthly subscription called the Deutschland ticket grants you access to all public transportation systems in the entire country including Local Trains, Bus, Trams and Metro.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Germany's economy has been stagnant for the last 2 years with little signs of recovery and due to the language barrier recruitment of foreign students with littleor no German skills is below average. Students with good technical skills letters of recommendation and atleast B1 German skills can get a job with a salary of around 55000 to 60000.

Mixed emotions, but truly endeavoring experience.
Tips: I recommend all the students who are interested in joining Ul university to be really good at German or the struggle is real at the end of the day. There typically would be no time for one to learn language skills after coming to Ulm, as the academics and part time really take up your time. People intend to earn money and I see a lot of students really forget about studies after seeing a lot of possibilities for money with part time but it doesn't help in the long run.
Likes (Student Life): There are many prospects for students, the international experience, getting to know individuals from different countries, networking, cross cultural experience, all of these are good for work in the long run. You get to know how things are run in different parts of the world. Your communication has improved. Many clubs exist in the university and many events to participate in and socialize.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Most companies do, getting the contact is the tougher part. Once that is received, it's a cakewalk for visas being sponsored. The packages really depend on the skills that one holds and the language knowledge one really has, in my opinion, knowing German really matters no matter how good a skill holder you are.

Best for academics, safe and student friendly.
Tips: The Germans are much reserved type of people but once you speak German, they are quite welcoming. Also, I got two scholarships during my uni tenure - Deutschland Stipendium and Baden Württemberg scholarship, each giving 300 and 650 monthly for a year. The course is excellent, the university is good and I love Germany.
Likes (Safety): Ulm is a very safe, student friendly city. Have been partying till 3 am and many girl colleagues have also said it’s quite safe. Also, public transport is very well designed and effective. I never had any bad experience in the city. Just one thing, Germans work slowly as they still follow paperwork systems in administrative work.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time jobs or HiWi jobs are available at university. Off campus jobs are also there in the city. Part time work can be managed quite well with studies. The average payout is generally 14 per hour in the city. However, at university you can get up to 15 per hour.

Fun student life but difficult to integrate in Germany.
Tips: It’s in an isolated part of Germany, so be aware of loneliness.
Has tuition fees that don’t seem worth it for the study offered.
There are beautiful hostel that gives you access to Germany's pristine countryside.
The public transport is exceptional.
Likes (Internships): They give a lot of freedom to take a semester break and offer internship programs around the university campus that the students can take and are highly relevant. The fact that the university is located in Baden Wurttemberg means a high probability of getting internships in major cities like Stuttgart, Munich, etc.
Dislikes (Value for money): It’s a German university that requires fees for only international students. It’s best to choose the best alternative that meets your financial and academic needs. The job aspects of my course aren’t as high as in other countries.

Excellent academic life with balanced student life.
Tips: Unlike many TUs, where the student to professor ratio in classrooms is quite high, the University of Ulm maintains a restricted intake. This ensures close interaction with Professors and tutors, allowing to build a more personal academic connection. Access to lab equipment is not limited
The University provides a scholarship, like Deutschstipendium, 300 euro/month for a year. There are also scholarships like STIBET which offer around 1500 euros to students who are nearing the completion of their thesis, to support them during their transition to job hunting period. Since coming, my approach to learning has shifted from memorisation to understanding. I am really satisfied with the university.

Excellent choice. Good support for student if they face any difficulties. German language is a must.
Tips: There is a tuition fee and scholarships are available. The transition is pretty easy as the university student office will help a lot starting a few days. And also available if you face any difficulties. The course is also very good, covers both basic and advanced topics and is oriented. Has projects suited for subjects.

Great professors, top notch apparatus, new learnings, and more sport options.
Tips: Before joining, students should learn German at any cost. Plus, brush up on the basics for whatever course you will pursue. Learning basic skills could help with your resume. Also, follow whatever opportunity comes in front of you because it is a bit difficult to find jobs. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, university and the country.
Likes (Post study jobs): Post-study jobs are good because Germany requires good-quality engineers. Also, the quality of education is top-notch. German is quite mandatory for post-study jobs also learn some additional skills that you think could help you find full-time jobs.
Dislikes (Internships): Guidance was given by professors but it takes upon the student to apply for internships. Germany does not follow the placement rule. Plus all the professors have good research topics and excellent knowledge about engineering. Moreover they also conduct industrial visits which helps students to better visualize how things work in Germany.
