MSc in Physics - Batch of 2026

RWTH Aachen - an underappreciated gem bordering Germany, Netherlands and Belgium
Tips: Learning some German will go a long way, it is a very international environment so you can definitely get by just with English but to make more friends and assimilate yourself, it is really appreciated to learn the language, the local also appreciate it. It is also cheaper to learn German in India than in Germany xD
It is also very important to get good insurance. Your student status requires you to have valid health insurance, but it is highly recommended to also get a private liability insurance for a few Euros per month, which protects you from any accidents that you can be involved in that damage someone else's property. I applied for and got a scholarship specific to my course. The deadline was a few months before the regular admission deadline and it provided me about 500 Euros per month stipend for 2 years and an internship (working student/HiWi) contract for the first year for 8 hours/week that also paid about 500 euros per month. You can find student jobs at a lab provided you have a little background knowledge in the subject, usually English is sufficient for this. If you want to work at a tech company or a Fraunhofer, knowing German can help. I am very satisfied with my university. The faculty has been superb and there is excellent research in Physics here. It is also very affordable, charges zero tuition and studentship comes with a national travel card that allows you to avail all the public transport in the country, bus, tram, train, for free. The cost is included in the semester fee of about 300 euros.
Likes (Internships): Every few months, the student body and the university organise a career/job fair to arrange internships for the students and provide valuable guidance and upskilling for soft skills. There are numerous calls for international exchange visits/internships under the Erasmus and other programmes that the RWTH is a part of, which all students, regardless of whether they are only European, can participate in.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Even for a small college town, they have almost 10-15 Indian restaurants in the main city region, with reasonable prices 10-15 Euros for a meal, some focus on North/South Indian cuisine. I prefer cooking for myself to manage budget and health, it is quite convenient and possible to find food that suits your dietary requirements (veg, vegan, hall, etc.).

M.Sc. Smart Production Engineering - Batch of 2026
4.1
Production engineering at RWTH.
Tips: They do have English courses available through the RWTH International Academy. But those courses have tuition fees involved, for which they also have various scholarship programs that one can apply for. Also a lot of people have doubt whether the RWTH international academy courses are similar to the RWTH courses in German. I would say we both share the same faculty members, classrooms and networking events and it makes no difference. The only benefit you have is that the course is in English. The degree would have the same value as the one from RWTH.
Likes (Student Life): There are lot of events happening throughout the semester to meet with people and interact with people from different countries. Also the variety of events happening here means everyone can find their own crowd. There are music events, club parties, food events and sports events to name a few.
Dislikes (Part time work): Aachen is not as big a city as Cologne or Bonn or Düsseldorf. So finding part time work here is a bit tough, but there are adequate options for someone who is looking for part time. You do have the option of getting a student assistant role at the university but it's pretty limited. MS part time work here would beat grocery stores and restaurants.

Breaking down the academic life in Germany.
Tips: I did not experience much cultural shift because in our course 40% students are Indian and there are huge number of Indian students in Aachen combining all courses. It's a good thing in a way but due to this we did not mix up much with other international people. I got the High Potential Student Grant from the RWTH Internal Academy which covered the feels for 1 semester out of 4. The application for it was included with the application for the masters programme. The allowance was one time for 5500 euros. RWTH is a great university, but like other Technical Universities, the focus on theoretical part is much more compared to the practical aspects which are actually required by the industries. So those things have to be learned through self study and personal projects.
Likes (Safety): I am not aware of the facilities provided to ensure student safety. Also most of the universities have no defined campus as such. The institutional buildings are spread all over the city. Aachen is very safe even at night. I did not have any bad experience here.
Dislikes (Internships): You have to find internships yourself. The companies post their opening on their official job portals or linkedin or some other sites like Stepstone, Glassdoor etc. The university can only guide you regarding the contact and legal stuff but no help regarding the internship hunt. There are internship positions relevant to my field of study.

Master of Science in Transport Engineering and Mobility (In German) - Batch of 2025
4.5
One of the best university, which also means tough courses and competition.
Tips: I did not pay any tuition fees for my course. There is a 300 euro fee for a student ticket, discounted food in the canteen and other services. The university provides difficult courses that are very tough to pass. You need at least 50% marks to pass the subjects. The exam length is decided according to one minute per one point. Furthermore, the professors are friendly and masters of their domain. I got into my course because I had a very good final graduation in my Bachelor's.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): When you get a full time job, you can apply for a blue card, which gives you 4 years of visa. Afterwards, you can renew your blue card or apply for permanent residence. For permanent residence, you need at least B1 B1-level German. Getting permanent residence (PR) is beneficial in case you lose your job, as you get financial support from the government. Without PR, you only get three months to find a new job. So I would consider getting a PR.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are three Indian restaurants they all have traditional Indian food. Paneer tikka and rice 13 euros, Chicken tikka and rice 13 euros, Bhindi, mix-veg, etc. With rice 11-12 euros, regular naan 2 - 2.5 euros, garlic naan and utter naan 3.5 euros.

Home, away from home in Aachen.
Tips: I have become independent and a bit social after joining the university. Networking has become one of the most important learnings so far. The courses might feel intimidating at first, but if you spend some time with the topics, you'll get through. Stay focused on what lecturers say.
Likes (Safety): I never faced any form of unsafe experience. The city of Aachen is very student friendly and almost every person you meet in public transport has high chances of being a student. All cultures and communities live in harmony and are supportive of students needs.
Dislikes (Student Life): The day starts with revising college lecture notes, video that took place last night. Checking schedules and lecture halls for today's sessions. Keeping yourself up to date with technological advancements in our field and how the fundamentals taught to us relate to them. The university has a diverse range of events, from CV check to conduct-yourself workshops, to fun events like Christmas Ice skating events. There are clubs and communities for almost everything you can think of.

M.Sc in Automotive Engineering - Batch of 2026
4.1
A great university for those passionate about their programs.
Tips: I hope that you're not in a hurry to get your degree. The exams in Germany are difficult, so likely, you won't be able to complete your degree in the time frame listed on the program website. You will probably have lots of difficult exams in any given semester. The only fees paid here are for public transport and a social contribution. In the city itself, there are plenty of buses operating frequently and a large number of stops, so it's very easy to get around in the city. With the semester travel ticket from the University, you can also use public transport all over Germany for free.
Dislikes (Indian Food): It's Germany, you're not going to find an abundance of Indian restaurants, and most are expensive anyway. It's better to just cook your own food if Indian food is what you want. I cook most of my food, and a few times a week I eat at the university canteen.

M.Sc. Materials Engineering (International Profile) - Batch of 2025

Good course & university but growing number of students coming by paying agents is concerning.
Tips: Students could apply to the Deutschlandstipendium before joining their Master's and could get a 1-year scholarship of 300 euros per month. You could apply before starting your studies. Expect a lot of Indian students on campus. The number of Indian students has been exponentially growing in the past 2-3 years. Sadly, some of them are here with no knowledge of the course they applied for, and are here only by paying some agents, which makes it unfair for the others, and reduces the name and reputation of the university. There are a lot of Indian stores and Indian restaurants which will help you from falling homesick. Try to join student organisations and events every time you have an opportunity. It will help you meet more locals and experience the international atmosphere of the university. There is an International Welcome week at the beginning for everyone, where you get to meet all the student organisations and associations from all across Aachen under one roof. Please make good use of that. The students coming here in the winter semester could feel very low and probably depressed in the months of October to February due to the gloomy winters and shorter daylight hours. It is a common occurrence with many in winter, including the locals. It is especially advised to always have social interactions and attend events/parties/gatherings to keep your mood up and face the winters.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is covered by the semester ticket, which is included in your tuition payment. It gives all students unlimited access to all city buses, local/regional trains, metro, trams, and all other forms of public transportation across Germany, except for high-speed trains.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It is very difficult and time-consuming to integrate with locals and create social circles due to the language barrier. Because of this, many international students find themselves hanging out with other students from their country or fellow international students. Also, the weather is always gloomy and cloudy, with rain almost every other day.

Fun, new learning and exciting.
Tips: You will find cultural differences, but most of the students are international, and the majority will be Indian. It is very easy to find local community members. I didn't avail myself of any scholarships. The course is useful and interesting, especially since the professors are good. Fluent German is mandatory for any on-campus jobs. Even to work hard jobs like in a warehouse, a cashier or a restaurant, you need to know the language, and some mandatory skills would be required. It is manageable with academics as long as your efforts are towards the subjects. The average payout will be 12-15/€ per hour.
Likes (Safety): Here, everywhere, police/security are surrounded, and every region has a police station, with rules and regulations that are very strict. No one can get away with doing anything wrong. You are not allowed to commit any crime. Here, the crime rate is almost zero. The culture itself is very safe, and people are friendly. What’s more, here, you find equal opportunities for all genders as well.

Academically challenging, but the quality of education is impeccable.
Tips: The studies are quite challenging academically and need extensive hard work. However, the knowledge one would gain through the courses here is impeccable. The quality of education is quite good. The city of Aachen is not very expensive and student-friendly; therefore, financially, it is optimal to study at RWTH for international students. AFAIK, there are a few government-sponsored merit-based scholarships available. Also, various student assistant roles are available within the university to work part-time in the desired field. The course is heavily theory-based with little practical exposure.

Taking initiative is essential to grow professionally.
Tips: I did not feel a big cultural shift, as Western society is always common on social media and TV shows. People here are quite polite, follow the rules, and seem structured. I received 1 scholarship, which provided 300 euros a month for 1 year. RWTH Aachen University is a great place to study because of its excellent public transportation. It offers multiple transport options, such as trains, buses, and e-scooters. The city is also quite bike-friendly with good traffic regulations and roads. In addition, the roads are in excellent condition, making travel very safe. It's also affordable for students, who get to use the student travel card. Overall, I am happy with the university, although I feel some courses could be more application-oriented rather than theoretical.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are a lot of companies that hire people in a lot of different fields and job descriptions. Most of them will also help with your work visa if needed. I’ve also heard that RWTH is a respected college, so the offers probably won’t be too shabby, though I haven’t looked into the details. They might be hiring for things like engineers, architects, designers, simulations, or product managers.

Meaningful and impactful courses but super difficult to get through.
Tips: The courses and exams are super difficult and require a lot of involvement right from the get-go, including self-study, searching other material, learning from online resources and learning to apply concepts practically. The final exams usually count for 100% of the grade and are also very frequently made to be super difficult so that only those that are fully fluent with the subjects can get a good grade and those who have consistently studied can get a passable grade. There will be discrimination based on language because most student jobs require full speaking proficiency in German, which is an added task. On multiple occasions, I've walked through the city beyond 2 am and had no scary experiences as a male. The buses run until midnight at least and are surveilled for safety. Police patrol the grounds of the main city street regularly. Most of the residents of the city are students, which is a bonus in terms of safety. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences so far.
Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition fee and the semester extension fee for my degree programme is not justified when you consider the fact that there are other students who are doing the same courses in the university without having to pay tuition fee because their degree programme is free of cost.

RWTH Aachen University - The largest public university in Germany.
Tips: I recommend that all students learn German before coming to RWTH Aachen University. At least an A2 level is required. The study-life balance here is awesome. We get sufficient time to study and have fun. We get a lot of opportunities to participate and learn from various activities. The scope of learning in fun is highly valuable here. The diverse culture helps us to understand international customs and settings. Research the curriculum and try to determine what job opportunities are available after graduation. And finally, bring all the necessary items with you from India, as they are quite expensive here.
Dislikes (Value for money): RWTH Aachen University is the largest public university in Europe, with a QS world ranking of 99. It has highly reputed faculty members, and its degree is considered highly valuable. The opportunity to find a job or research work is quite easy here.

College is demanding but once you put in your 100 percent it is really rewarding.
Tips: For students coming from India, it could seem very intimidating at first because of the difference in the education system. Personally, I had to work hard during the first 6 months of my Master's just to get on equal footing as some other students in the course. But once you start learning it becomes easier and more fun than anything that you have experienced so far. I did not have any scholarships as I did not have any tuition fees. I am very satisfied with the university and the course as well as Germany. It gave me a new perspective on the education system and I liked it a lot.
Likes (Value for money): I studied in a course that had zero tuition fees. For me, it was an excellent value for money. For some other courses where the tuition fees were introduced, it is still pretty low compared to the universities in the USA and the UK. So I think for them as well it was a good value for money.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Since Aachen is a small city, there are not many international (especially good Indian) food options available. For a few restaurants there, the pricing would be around 15 Euros per person per meal. Since this could be costly if you eat outside every day, most of the students cook at home.

RWTH Aachen University is one of the best choice if you choose masters in Germany.
Tips: Students should check the selection criteria for the scholarships before joining the university. Aachen is one of the best cities in Germany for international students. The course is difficult and is mostly theoretical but you also have an internship component where one has a mandatory internship for at least 6 months. So, overall it is a well-balanced course.

Amazing student life, good opportunities for part time.
Tips: Students should know that they need to manage their time themselves. There is no spoon-feeding and also, don't go into tiring part-time jobs, rather find a part-time job at the university that will help build your CV and leave you with enough energy to focus on your studies as well. There are many opportunities at the university for part-time so try to choose wisely.
Likes (Student Life): There are a lot of opportunities for Indian students. The Indian community in Aachen is the best in Germany. There are many events ranging from music to drama to dance to sports. There are a lot of international clubs and communities too.

Epitome of academic excellence
Tips: There are two categories of courses- public ones (that have no tuition fee) and IntAc courses (the ones with tuition fees). Mine is public. The faculty, as well as assistants, are extremely helpful and more focused on the concept than scoring marks.
Likes (Public transportation): You pay around 300 at the start of every semester and it covers a semester ticket (throughout Germany), by which you can travel on any public transport (except superfast trains). The card that they provide needs to be with you every time you travel. It is very helpful.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking at home. The Indian food here is based on the preference of German people, I find it a little less spicy! I find that the food I make at home not only saves me money but I can control the amount of spice, and portion, and it is healthier.

RWTH Aachen University: Great for Academic, Financial and Personal Growth
Tips: The cultural shift is very adaptable, especially if the person loves being independent and doesn't mind handling daily chores. Education in Germany is not very expensive making it easier to pay back after you secure a part-time/ full-time job. RWTH provides ample exposure and opportunities to foster both, financial independence and academic excellence.
Likes (Public transportation): RWTH provides a Deutschland ticket included in the semester contribution fee, which allows you to take any regional train throughout Germany. Additionally, the buses are free and very well-connected. Although DB trains may not be very punctual, the connectivity and ease of travelling with public transport make it one of the best options for students.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Post-study jobs are largely independent of the university of study. All the applications made to the companies in Germany are made personally, unlike the placement system that exists in India. One good thing about RWTH is the job fairs that give a chance to understand the market and roles in the current situation.

A perfect foot hold to enter Germany and begin your journey in the EU culture.
Tips: I chose to be part of the culture of Germany/EU, and of course, there is a cultural shift from polychronic to a monochronic culture. This is a good thing. Embrace, learn and enjoy this culture and it will help you, in turn, appreciate your home culture as well.
There are a few scholarships available from DAAD, a loan, also a 500 Euro recommendation gift for joining the college.
The university is located in Bremen, which is a relatively small town and much cheaper than the big cities. Jobs have to be applied online so starting from Bremen was the best. The university and course were decent. Nothing exceptional but a good basic MBA. Language is the only barrier to setting up in Germany.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Teaching and faculty are good. That was the best part of college. The teaching was less theoretical and mostly practical. There were group assignments and presentations. You as a student, won't feel any discrimination or biases of any kind.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The university itself does not help arrange any interviews, meet-ups, or company placements. You need German language fluency if you want to apply for jobs and internships. (only IT jobs available in English). You do not need a sponsor visa via this route of doing studies and then working. You just need to find a job in your field. Salary packages are capped by the government. Minimum after an MBA is 45,000/annum Euro. Usually, 55,000 - 80,000 is offered, besides perks. Language is the only barrier.

A grand German adventure in a quaint student town.
Tips: The culture shock that you will get is only initially. But once you find friends, it’s very easy going and you will love the quaint town of Bremen. You might find loads of part time opportunities. Scholarships are difficult but you can definitely apply for them. I was very satisfied because I got great faculty, amazing friends and an internationally recognised degree. So all the best.
Likes (Post study jobs): You will get all the help from the faculty, the alumni and the students who are already working as Werkstudent (student work). Sponsored visas, well, not so many nowadays as there is a language barrier for full time jobs. Starting packages can vary based on your experience and job role. But on average, it’s between 40,000 - 50,000 euros for maybe developers. It can go even higher if you get selected in R&D.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food in restaurants are quite expensive. It will be better to buy stuff or ingredients from Indian stores and cook for yourself. It will be cheaper and taste better.

Best public university for students.
Tips: Well trained faculty plus less fees compared to other universities. The university has organised all events and supported getting internships. The campus is good and well maintained. The culture and atmosphere were really nice.

Life was really good for students to create events or other social and cultural activities. All other facilities are available to read and study and get information.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Well trained and practical oriented staff available. We got all the materials to read and learn. We got assignments or notes to solve and study about subject. We got individual support for exams and gave every other support to graduate and get a good job.

Don't just come as a student but come with the mindset of building a better lifestyle.
Tips: Apply for student accommodation at least 6 months to 1 year before. Do city registration, pay bills on time. Start learning a language from India, even though the courses are in English but anyway, you have to learn a language for jobs so be ready to explore once you arrive. Don't just sit in your room. Explore the city, meet people. Expect to do a lot of things by yourself like applying for jobs when arriving here in the first month, dont wait to finish your classes and then apply. Scholarship is based on an early bird discount. University is good and very international. Later scholarship for your expenses is also available in Bremen when you do your thesis, which is around 300 per month.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Chances of permanent settlement are good if you have a good job in this country and the process is easy, though a bit lengthy, only if you don't have proper documentation, like a German language Certificate. I would settle permanently here. Most people think they get exactly what they have in India. You have to do everything by yourself. Accept people will be straightforward, not because they are rude but because they dont know how to butter. Bureaucracy is slow but PR is easy if you accept this reality as well. This is not limited to documentation.
Dislikes (Value for money): The MBA programme is highly practical with a strong focus on case studies, field trips, and presentations. However, the tuition fee is relatively high compared to the actual value delivered. As each modules complete in one or 2 weeks. Lots of work you need to do by yourself. Research, assignment. Professors are helpful but some take time to reply. But this university is still better in terms of money than other private universities. First of all this is a public institution affiliated with Hochschule Bremen. So with tuition fees, you can see a lot of things are also there in the city with students.

Bremen is a small city, well connected and extremely punctual.
Tips: This acts as a good gateway to your career in Europe because it's a public university, but if you really need quality studies, maybe this might not be the first option. But as per the tuition fee and cost of living, it is really worth it, because other universities charge way more than this. The professors are helping, but the only thing is that you need to talk and be kind of pushy to be helpful with the opportunities outside. The university also gives a mandatory certificate, which makes it a bit easier to get internships, as the tax for the compulsory internships is very minimal and even the hours do not count.
Likes (Public transportation): Bremen is a small city, well connected and extremely punctual. The frequency of the buses and trams is also better than in other cities I have lived in.
Many times I had to go home late from the city Centre and there was at least a bus every one hour.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): It took me a while to understand the job market. Even though I did not get direct help from the University, talking to a lot of seniors and pass-outs helped me and made me realise that knowing many people is really important here. There is no such thing as placements.
There is, of course, a career guide department that helps you work on the CV, attend interviews in a different cultural communication style.
I really think if you network efficiently, there is scope; if you do not put those efforts, it is a bit complicated to get the desired job.

Practical exposure and nice learning environment.
Tips: It's very important to be dynamic and adjust if you are moving to another country. Do respect the culture and people of you want to learn and network. I have availed a DAAD scholarship which of 1000 euros, as I was very active in college and associated with NGOs helping international students.
Likes (Public transportation): There are trams everywhere and it is well connected to different parts of the city. Also, there is an option of travelling by buses and trains. The good part is that with a semester ticket, provided by the university, all these public transport and even the local library are accessible and free.
Dislikes (Student Life): Bremen is a small city and there are less option for socialising. So, for better vibes, nearby cities like Hamburg are better. I used to travel a lot to different cities. During college days, I used to visit cultural functions organised by different countries on a weekly basis. I also joined a local event group for language improvement.

Ideal for anyone who is willing to work smart and hard.
Tips: Be ready for a massive cultural shift and for a super busy schedule. You would have to do your research and keep yourself updated with everything as nothing will be given to you. In the end your ROI depends on how much hard work and smart-work your are able to pull off. College offers brilliant infra and ecosystem. You just have to ensure that you make the best use of all the facilities and options.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Super approachable and always responds over email and for a quick chat post class. Teaching methods are quite modern, interactive and based on a practical approach. We had over 20+ nationalities in our class, making each and every discussion broader and more diverse.
Dislikes (Internships): There is no guidance as such. There are general seminars but you have to pick what best works for you and use your own research and then implement as per your requirements. Availability depends on which location you are looking at. Bremen has limited options but Hamburg and other major cities offer quite a lot of options.

A practical and realistic experience.
Tips: If you want to do part time job or any local communication, German is a must. Make your every document clear. In this university faculty will not teach you from scratch. You need to do self study for the concept or at least you should know the basic concept from the Bachelor's.

A peaceful and cozy life in Germany.
Tips: Students should be ready to go to classes, manage to find a part-time job, study the German language, and search for internships before they complete the course. I have extended my subject so that I can manage my language learning skills, part-time work, and the course. At least two semesters of the course will cover the fundamentals of German. During this time, you can start preparing for finding an internship.
Likes (Public transportation): Transportation is usually on time in Bremen because it’s a well-organised city. There are also plenty of buses and trams, so you can usually get to your destination within ten minutes. In addition, there’s a transportation service every 30 minutes in the early morning and late at night.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I don't think there are many big companies near Bremen or in Bremen. Usually, in the south of Germany, we have many big MNCs or industries compared to the north. If I wanted a good job, then I think I would move to another city in the south for better opportunities.

A short & sweet experience
Tips: This university has mostly Indian students which is good and bad at the same time! But overall, the course is very short and sweet. So you'll never know by the time it ends. The program is mostly practical rather than theoretical, so it's fun to learn. Get clarity on your specialization in the very beginning, because there's always some ambiguity with it.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport and connectivity is one of the best in Germany. There is a tram station right in front of the campus. The campus is centrally located and takes only 10 mins from the Hauptbahnhof. If you're a party geek, then know that the trams run all night!
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The university promotes and informs about job fairs, but getting an opportunity for full time jobs without German language is not easy! They organise company visits but in the end, it all comes down to the language. It's not hard to get a job in Germany, but quite hard in Bremen.
