Growth and learning at TUHH.
Tips: Students should be prepared for a rigorous academic environment with high level of self directed learning at TUHH. The transition was smooth overall, though there was a cultural shift towards punctuality, independence, and structured systems. I am highly satisfied with university, the MEMS course and Germany as a study destination.
Likes (Safety): TUHH provides a vibrant and supportive campus environment. My days include classes, group projects and self study with student clubs international communities and cultural or technical events making college life engaging and enjoyable.

Life in TUHH is stressful but enjoyable to get better at your craft.
Tips: It's a technical university so be ready to study in depth where you will be able to study topics deeply which will help you understand things from the core. There are options to get a scholarship from university as well as from other sources. Also there are loan programs for semester fees which is also nice.

Lots of opportunities to explore.
Tips: Study well from the beginning as the course requires proper time for understanding concepts, and if you score good grades, several scholarship opportunities are unlocked. Learn to adapt to the surrounding environment and blend in with the German culture.
Likes (Value for money): As the university is a public university there is no tuition fee for the studies. Only expenses that are there are for the expenditures like house rent and health insurance and food cost. This can be managed by part time jobs at university and outside university by doing odd jobs.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Depending on the field of study, several chemical industries are present in Germany and Germany is considered the technological hub for process engineering. For designing jobs and production, you need German language skills to work in a German company.

Good college and faculty.
Tips: Students should know that academics are demanding and self-driven and basic German will be helpful for day to day life. The transition was smooth, though I noticed a culture shift. Here, people are punctual, organized and value personal space.
Likes (Safety): Hamburg feels safe even at night. Public transport is reliable, areas are pretty good, and people are respectful. City has emergency call points, response police, secure student housing and university helplines with proper health care facilities.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Germany offers clear pathways for international graduates to stay and work after their studies but the process of obtaining permanent residence is quite lengthy and requires several conditions. My chances are moderate for permanent settlement in this country.

Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) is welcoming.
Tips: People from Bengaluru would get easily adjusted as the weather is just like Bengaluru's weather. Mood but not harsh. So my transition was easy. I haven't received a scholarship but there is Deutschlandstipendien available after each term. However, I do not know much about this. The professors don't really teach much here and it's all self learning. From my point of view I feel that's how education runs here. However the professors are really helpful if you approach them with a problem individually. Most classes you would not find the professors teaching but the tutors of that subject. So my experience with tutors are 50-50. Some teach very well. Others are clueless just as others. Regarding my course, apart from the core subjects, the specializations are really interesting and are mostly hands on. So if you're interested in Mechatronics, Product Development, Material sciences this course would be perfect for you. Racism against Indians exists everywhere, and nowadays it has increased a lot and you can visibly see people acting ignorant. But that's just some ignorant foreigners living in Germany. I find Germans very friendly and helpful here. And the country is perfect.
Likes (Public transportation): Compared to all the other places I've visited around Germany, Hamburg has really good transportation. If you miss out the last train you need not worry as there are night buses available to every corner of the city. For students, if you live near the university say places like Harburg, Heimfeld and Eiu00dfendorf, you would be a bus away from the university and can reach in 10-15 minutes. There are bus stop in front of the university itself. With your semester fees, Deutschland ticket is included, which is unlimited tickets for public and regional transportation. So you can easily travel around Germany for that. If not a student, one way city train tickets would cost you around 3 euros and as far as I am aware, it's cheaper if you buy online. Deutschland tickets it's a monthly subscription, and you will have to pay around 60 euros every month from next year ( only if you're not a student). If you don't want to pay much, there's still an unlimited ticket for within the city which is much lesser than Deutschland ticket. However, it will only work for Hamburg.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): As far as I am aware, you do not need sponsorship for a work visa. It's affordable. As long as you can have a job contract in hand, you can obtain a work visa. M.Sc. focuses on material Science and business administration. You can either get into research or roles as a project manager, performance management team, supply chain and logistics. Hamburg, being a port city itself, has a lot of options for supply chain, logistics, maritime. If you've come here with no experience, it's much easier to get into part time jobs, but not full time as you would need more experience and junior roles are not much. But with experience, part time is slightly difficult as you'll be over qualified. Then again it's not impossible, bigger companies would accept applications.

Best of both worlds, academics and fun.
Tips: This is an academically oriented university, a lot of focus is on research. Do not take studies lightly. There are many scholarships offered on the campus apart from DAAD. The stipend you receive varies based on the scholarship. The range is between 300-500 euros for 6 to 12 months. I'm very satisfied with the course and my University. Very happy with my German academic experience.
Likes (Part time work): The campus is big enough giving you ample place to organize meetings for study or group meetings. The A building is accessible until late midnight and also through the night for common study room. Many events are organized in TU. Sommerfest is something everyone looks forward to every year. There are always some conference or institution events that are ongoing, where you can grab currywurst or a beer. We have the ISA, the Indian Students Association, that looks after the well being of Indian students on campus, right from their admission through graduation.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The professors are really nice and approachable. But you have to take appointments in due time. Many courses offer PBL problem based learning which allows you to apply what you have learnt in class to real life problems. Majority of professors are German with a few professors of other nationalities.

Part time jobs are also available in the area to support financially.
I am greatly satisfied with my course.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Excellent faculty and class options including a good range of specialization options.
Opportunities to work under professors on projects and gain lab experience.
Classes include lectures as well as project or lab components for hand-on experience.
Faculties are very supportive and provides lots of opportunities for students.
Dislikes (Indian Food): A range of restaurants are available close to the university as well as in the main city. A good combination of Indian food as well as international food is available.
Some restaurants and shops provide student offers on particular dates.
I generally used to cook food at home most of the time, as it is cheaper and much healthier.
The university campus also includes a canteen with subsidized prize for the students.

A place to grow, learn, and thrive.
Tips: The University is located in Harburg, well connected by Bus/Sbahn. You can follow the AStA page and TUHH page on Instagram to get updates on weekly events. There are a lot of freshers orientation and support events on campus. There is an accommodation office which can help you with accommodation. Make sure you also apply to the studentenwerk accommodation application.
Likes (Public transportation): Everything is covered in your student ID. Bus, tram, S-Bahn, U-Bahn, ferry. With the student ID, you can travel without worrying about buying a ticket! Just flash that ID and you're good to go. Seriously, makes life so much easier, especially when you're running late for class. Plus, think of all the money you save. Free rides all semester long can't beat that.

A young TU that is searching its path towards excellence.
Tips: There is a dedicated Indian Students Association that is looking forward to help Indian students arriving to Germany. In comparison to Indian lectures, things are much different here and you should put it more effort to get things done. Do not expect any spoonfeeding as you will have to learn to get most of the things done by yourself.
Likes (Public transportation): The connectivity to different parts of the city is truly amazing couldn't have asked for better connectivity. There are a variety of them, buses usually cover most of the street while the S-bahns take from one end to the other end of the city and U bahn are within city limits thereby offering multiple connectivity. Trains are operation between 4:00 am to 1:00 am the next day while buses operate 24*7 in major cities.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): A lot of the studies happens just by reading the slides, only few faculty are really dedicated towards our course. Things could have been better, and following our feedback, starting 2025 the course has gotten better. We faced issues with the course not being offered in our case, but the new curriculum has taken care of this issue.

International and technically oriented university.
Tips: There was a cultural shift from being more detail oriented in learning a concept, German culture and food. I did not avail any scholarships but we do have scholarships for good performers from the university and can also apply for DAAD scholarships. We get the flexibility to plan our day and also choose courses we like.
Likes (Public transportation): The transport ticket is included in the university fee therefore no hassel in buying tickets and the city is well connected by buses and trains so it is easier to travel. We also have Deutschland ticket for regional trains. It gives us the opportunity to explore places around.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The post study jobs are much easier for students with German language skills. Job roles include Automation Engineer, Software Engineer, Security Analyst. Salary packages generally offered around 45,000 to 50,000 euros for a fresh graduate. There are pretty large companies in Hamburg like Airbus, Nordex, Siemens, Adobe.

A great learning experience with strong academic support.
Tips: I am a working student now. I struggled in the initial days but there is always a chance if you are aware and consistent in whatever you are doing, just analyse the surroundings and react according, and you will have what you should have at the end of the day.
Likes (Public transportation): Everything is super convenient and easy to get. In return, you can have this app HVV in Hamburg, which would guide you in many ways, and the delays are also updated there on the app in no time, so that you won't miss any important connection and be there on time you should be.
Dislikes (Internships): Many available chances and the engagement is super flexible with the big companies. You have to be confident enough to go talk to any person and make a good impression and the effect will help you to gain the most success in a very short amount of time.

Great campus life and learning.
Tips: TUHH is one of the best technical universities in Germany. Be prepared for rigorous academics and independent learning. The cultural shift was smooth due to our diverse community.

TUHH offers a good number of courses and specializations.
Tips: The courses offer a variety of specialisations. Review them all and choose the best fit for you. The university has a significant Indian population, making cultural adjustment relatively easy. The university presents great opportunities for those willing to push their boundaries.
Likes (Public transportation): The university is conveniently located near S-Bahn and bus stops with excellent connections. The semester fee includes a DB ticket, allowing travel on public transport throughout Germany. Bus stops are directly in front of the university building.
Dislikes (Internships): Most students studying in Germany prefer working student roles over internships. Internships are something you need to search for yourself. Most of the courses do not have a compulsory internship, so it is not something the students are looking for actively.

Very limited opportunities.
Tips: The course is very good. While the subjects are limited, your curiosity isn't, and you can explore other departments. However, the biggest challenge is the German language; German B2 is essential for jobs in the country, especially for mechanical engineers. Start learning A2 before you come or begin right away. Prioritise language learning over studies initially.
Likes (Public transportation): The university has two bus stops, one at the front and one at the back. The bus frequency is an average of 5-10 minutes for both stops. It's a 10-minute walk to the train station, which also has a 10-minute frequency. The public transportation is well-connected.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There is no hiring like in India no campus placements. You have to search for jobs yourself and it can be a difficult task. The university has a friendly and helpful career centre, I haven't observed them securing jobs for students through their connections.

A good, friendly and well-respected college.
Tips: There are cultural shifts and changes in work life and academics. However, people can adapt to these changes. For my course, it was necessary to have credits in specific fields, along with a language test and other basic requirements. Although life can be challenging, especially when abroad, it also teaches you a lot. I am moderately satisfied with my current situation.
Likes (Student Life): There are numerous facilities and benefits available to students across the country. There are student discounts in restaurants, clubs, and museums. My campus offers both academic and extracurricular events, which help students maintain a balanced life. There are clubs like the Career Centre, international clubs, and language clubs, which help students adapt to the current environment and understand future prospects.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): In Germany, there aren't job placement services so you have to find a job yourself which can take some time. This also depends on the job market and available opportunities in your field but I would be happy to immigrate if given the chance.

Academically one of the best.
Tips: The course was manageable and I highly recommend it for studies. However I cannot offer solid suggestions regarding securing a job. Proficiency in German is highly recommended.
Likes (Value for money): It's a public university, so there's no tuition fee. However, there's a semester contribution of 350 to 400 euros. If you secure a place at a public university, there will be no tuition fee. Scholarships are available both within and outside the university apply as soon as possible, as higher grades around 1.0-1.5 are required.
Dislikes (Internships): It's mostly self guided. You need to do your own homework find companies, jobs and apply. German language proficiency minimum B1 level and some relevant work experience would be advantageous; otherwise, rejections are likely, especially for freshers.

Engaging campus life with flexibility and demanding academics.
Tips: Courses like Computer Science and Data Science are technical, requiring a strong mathematical foundation compared to traditional CS programs. Ensure careful course planning, as there's no limit to the number of subjects you can take in any semester.
Likes (Student Life): The university hosts a lot of events, sports to keep students engaged such that students don't feel the pressure of studies. There are volunteering internship programs that help a lot in finding technical jobs. As Hamburg is one of the biggest job markets in Germany, it posts a lot of technical and non-technical jobs for students.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Even though there are a lot of options for non-vegetarians, there are very less and expensive options for vegetarians. There are vegan and vegetarian options too. It's highly recommended to learn how to cook, as it can be very difficult to get by without that skill.

Excellent for research and does not limit you from exploring other fields.
Tips: It's excellent for those who enjoy the research and academic aspects of any field. The main focus is research, so don't anticipate learning much about the practical side of a subject. While there are problem-based labs, you will also need to undertake projects.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The city is excellent the people are welcoming, and career opportunities are abundant for those willing to work hard. It's a paradise for hard workers whether in blue-collar or white collar jobs. There are diverse companies located here, and people are less racist and more welcoming.
Dislikes (Internships): My course and many others don't have compulsory internships; students volunteer for them and must find their own opportunities. This is fine as TUHH is a well-known university but the current market isn't very favourable. However, if you have good projects and work experience it's not a problem.

Tips: I would highly recommend students who are interested in studying here have basic language skills at least A1 or A2, is recommended. There will be a huge cultural shift, but people here are friendly and not so social. I did not avail any scholarships for my studies. Germany has excellent transportation. There’s the Deutschland Pass, which is digital and can be used on any transportation, including local trains, trams, and buses. It’s only 58 Euros per month. I spent my days at university attending classes and enjoyed every moment with my friends. The university regularly hosted events, such as career days, university fests, and sporting events. We also had cultural clubs, a tech science club, and a party.

Active and highly engaging classes.
Tips: You have to learn a lot of things on your own. Nobody will spoon feed you. There is no campus selection in any German university. All the professors are very supportive and knowledgeable. Start learning from the start. Never rely on online lectures only and always clear your doubts.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The professor are or were working with the top companies and have hand on experience in their field and have awareness of what is really needed to become successful engineer. They are very helpful and encouraging to students. Basic knowledge of the topic is expected of them.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): For the last few years, the job market in germany is not that great especially in the automotive sector. There is a lot of competition and less openings in the company. If you are sure that you want to come, then learning German is beneficial.

Best place for international students who are looking to do masters in Automotive.
Tips: I would recommend learning German eventhough course is in English which would highly help in fetching an internship and work student. No strict class timings, friendly atmosphere, etc, will keep you motivated to learn and engage practically rather than reading only books.
Likes (Post study jobs): Part time job available as work student in college and outside college you can also find. Salary package depends on the job you get. In restaurant if you work for 4-5 hours per hour, it would be around 10-15 euros. If it's a work student, you would get around 450 per month.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I would prefer mensa (college canteen) where you get Bavarian food (local German food), so that you can plan and attend your classes accordingly. Of course you have the option to go to Indian restaurants nearby but expensive during college days.
Nearby you will find different local restaurants and also Indian restaurants. But being a student, I would recommend mensa food which is good and you don't need to go outside the college as well.

Practical oriented; friendly staff.
Tips: You will find so many students from our country. I didn't avail scholarship but there is one scholarship available you need to check after getting admit there. Germany is a nice country and our university is very practically oriented and the course is also good and there is an updated course too.
Likes (Post study jobs): In Germany, you will not get sponsorship if you get a work visa. Only when you are going for a job then they will sponsor you or else you have to fund it yourself, from your salary. You will get so many roles in Germany because Germany doesn't want your degree; they need your skills. And salary is actually based on that basis and also your past experience.
Dislikes (Indian Food): We are Indian and we need spicy food but you will not get it in Ingolstadt so you will definitely miss it. And if you want to go to some Indian restaurant, it will cost you around 30 per person. Cook your food by yourself. So you will get our food test.

The campus is very well connected.
Tips: I have been exposed to new technologies, methodologies, knowledge and industrial experience. I didn't get any scholarship. The university should provide more facilities, course is aligned with Industrial practices, and the country should work more on its economy.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is very well connected via bus. The city is very well connected to Munich and Nuremberg. Although the Deutschland ticket has increased in 2026, the public transport is still quite affordable and the frequency and convenience are also very good.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Moderately approachable, but some professors are very strict with making an appointment and won't tolerate you outside of that. Practical and industry-based teaching, the faculty has a great industrial exposure. 99% German faculty. We had an Indian professor for one subject.

Highly academic and good value for money.
Tips: A manageable cultural shift, learnt to cook better, became more social. No scholarships were availed. Highly satisfied with the university and course but mixed feelings for the country due to a huge language barrier and difficult job market.
Once you manage to get a job, the country suddenly seems highly satisfied.
Likes (Value for money): For me there was absolutely no fee just 60 EUR/sem. Now the fees have increased to 1500 EUR/sem which is still highly justified with the quality of knowledge, labs, professors, facilities and other academics. The project's topics, the thesis topics, and the international diversity are what make it even more fit for value for money.
Dislikes (Internships): Since there is no mandatory internship obligation in the course, so students need to find their own internships. The biggest challenge is the language. There is a separate institute (InES) under THI, where students can work under a professor to work as a student assistant jobs however it is usually difficult to get this job. Apart from this, students can have a good relationship with the professor for potential future referrals from the professor while applying to universities. Many jobs are within the field of study only barrier is the language.

Consider your dreams, not market demands.
Tips: With the living experience in Germany I can strongly say that any individual should only consider their dreams and interests towards a specific subject or course instead of going around market demands. It matters even if you stay in India as well. But Germany values every citizen employee and their time. So don't think in a stereotypical manner that Germany is only for cars.
Likes (Safety): Till today, I haven't seen any native or other EU members deliberately targeting the Indian students. And when it comes to safety, mostly foreign patrol vehicles will roam around the region. Public transportation is pretty well accessible next to the university. When it comes to safety, you don't have to worry, especially in Bavaria, Germany.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Mostly Indian students prefer cooking for themselves, because they can't afford the price. But from time to time, there are a lot of restaurants to explore. I think every individual can savour their tongue with multiple flavours around the globe here in Ingolstadt.

Good university but with tuition fees.
Tips: I became more health conscious and fitness conscious after staying here in Germany. Here one has to manage everything on their own, for example groceries shopping, cleaning the home, cooking, etc. So I learnt to live independently and also manage the finance effective. I did not get any scholarships. The very much like the university, it is small and elegant. I appreciate my course as it combines theory with practice and it is future thinking oriented. For our batch starting from 2022, there were no tuition feels but now there are huge semester fees of EUR 1200 so I suggest to prefer free Master's programme as much as possible. As in Germany, the living expenses are getting higher and if the tuition fees could be saved, then it will reduce the financial burden to a greater extent. One good thing is that Ingolstadt is located near Munich and Nuremberg, so one can easily get an internship in nearby cities while studying.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members of my course are very supportive, friendly and also highly knowledgeable. The teaching here is combined with theory in classes and practical learning through academic projects. The examination for theoretical subjects will be either written, moral or essay writing. For academic projects, final grading will be based on presentation and report submission. Industrial partners like AUDI, Cariad, Webasto etc. Also collaborative with their Painpoints or challenges often given as academic projects. All the teaching faculty members are German for my course.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The post study job mainly depends on the initial experience gained through werkstudent or internship roles during the course of study. There is no campus placement system; it is fully student responsibility to apply for fulltime jobs after graduation. The jobs can be researched in platform like LinkedIn, Stepstone or individual corporate career portals. The job roles related to my Master's programme are Market Intelligence, Innovation Management, Trend Management, Strategy Development, Product Management, Foresight, etc. The minimum salary package one can get starts from EUR50,000 per annum but in rare cases, my colleagues also got EUR70,000 per annum. It depends on the previous experience and skillset.

Really good and respected German public university.
Tips: Be mentally ready for changes and challenges. You will experience all kinds of cultural shifts possible, nothing like your home country you would see here. We have only 500 euros as fees so a scholarship is not needed. The language barrier is the only main challenge after some time.
Likes (Indian Food): A lot of Indian and Italian restaurants in our city. The price would cost 15-20 euros for a person in Indian restaurants and in others, you can spend 10-15 euros, which can be enough as 95% time, home cook meal is preferred, but also sometimes due to lack of time and other constraints, we eat outside.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs are less but you can work outside and find an opportunity on your own. Its manageable course is pretty much structured in such a way that you manage your work and studies. For odd jobs minimum wage you would get is 13.9 euros from 2026 onwards. If you get field jobs in companies pay would increase significantly.

A means to upgrade your career.
Tips: The courses here are short to build a profile from scratch without work experience. This course is suitable for people to build on already established work experience. The courses are designed to introduce new topics fr different streams. Building on top is up to you.
Likes (Quality of faculty): High quality teaching. The latest tech has been introduced. Professors are from industry and are closely working with them. Hence, the syllabus is updated each semester to meet the needs of the job market. Professors are approachable. Teaching goes beyond what is there in textbooks and more into the experience of the highly experienced faculty.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are on campus jobs but you need very high grades. Since it is a small city, doing odd jobs requires German. Opportunities within the cities are limited but since there are many big towns around, one can always move there to find jobs. Applying to Hiwi as early as possible helps.

Affordable education with good opportunities, but requires adaption.
Tips: Students should know that moving here requires some adjustment, both academically and culturally. The teaching style is more self driven, so you need to be independent in your studies. Culturally, there is a definite shift. Life is more structured, punctual, and rules are followed very strictly compared to back home. I did not avail any scholarships, so I managed expenses on my own. I am satisfied with my university and course because they provide good exposure and learning opportunities. Living in Germany also has its pros and cons but it is a rewarding experience if you are open to adapting.
Likes (Value for money): I only pay semester contribution fees per semester and no tuition fees, compared to other students and universities. Although new students now have to pay 500 in tuition fees each semester, I came here before these fees were introduced, so I feel my cost is fully justified, giving me excellent value for the education and opportunities available.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The opportunities for students are limited due to the current job market. Only a few companies sponsor visas and the process is highly competitive. The roles typically available for graduates are internships and working student positions which offer lower salaries compared to full time roles. Visa sponsored full time positions are rare making the transition difficult.

Practical, international and career-focused experience at THI.
Tips: Before joining THI students should know that the coursework is highly application oriented with strong industry connections and opportunities for real projects. Transitioning here involves adapting to Germany's structured education system and multicultural environment definitely a cultural shift but also a rewarding experience. I am quite satisfied with THI, my course and studying in Germany as it offers both academic depth and practical exposure preparing me well for an international career.

Practical oriented college.
Tips: Be prepared for a challenging environment, as it can be tough adjusting to a new college or country. Mental preparedness is key. There's a significant cultural shift here, including higher prices and different store hours; most close by 8 PM and are closed on Sundays. Overall, I am very satisfied with my college because of the low tuition fees and the excellent quality of education.
Likes (Student Life): The student life is great. The college is nice, with a great library, good location, and well-suited facilities. The lectures are good, and the M.Sc. in Engineering and Management course curriculum is excellent, with lots of project work and a practical approach.
Dislikes (Part time work): Ingolstadt is a small city, and finding part-time work can be challenging. We often have to look for jobs in other cities or on the outskirts of Ingolstadt. Consequently, we end up travelling a lot each way for part-time work, which can be stressful for 4 or 5-hour shifts.

Good experience, highly recommended.
Tips: My transition has been smooth; there are many Indians here, and lots of Indian groups where we can connect with long-term residents who share their experiences, which is very helpful for newcomers. It's an amazing city, and I've had a good experience so far, with great people and no racism. Scholarships are available; while I didn't apply, my friends were able to get them, so it seems easy to obtain. I am thoroughly satisfied.
Likes (Part time work): The city is peaceful, with little rush and empty buses, which I appreciate. There are frequent events and active student groups. Parties happen both on and off campus; club events can be pricey and crowded, and on-campus parties are enjoyable. Many hiking and trekking opportunities are there, along with many intercultural events where people of different backgrounds share their food and culture, which is fun. There are also various sports groups where you can join activities like callisthenics, basketball, football, and gym, and they offer free skill training through student-run programs.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Very approachable and educated, they are easy to talk to and reach out to. They do not make it difficult to answer questions and provide guidance, but you need to follow the appointment system. They will not be available at all times, and you cannot just barge into their office without a prior appointment. The faculty is mostly German, but one was South Asian. Their methodology is very structured and well-thought-out, so it feels organised and not random or confusing.

Practical learning at Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt.
Tips: Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt offers strong industry ties, especially with Audit. The cultural shift was manageable, and the locals were friendly, but knowing German helps. The university does not provide any scholarships because they are too hard to get.
Likes (Value for money): Tuition fee at THI is just 500 euros for the entire course, unlike many universities that charge thousands per semester. Add in strong academics and industry exposure, and it's an excellent value for money that makes the education here highly affordable.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are numerous on-campus job opportunities, including research assistant positions and regular job fairs. Off-campus roles are available due to the proximity of the Audit and MediaMarkt HQs. Munich is close as well. Pay is 1200 euros for working students and 1500 euros for interns, which is manageable with the course load.

Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt is a friendly and advanced university.
Tips: Some things students should know before coming to Ingolstadt are that you should learn the language, get good at the skills needed for the easy class, and get used to shops and places having different hours. The professors are very supportive and encourage us to be an active part in classes. Know that public transportation is your friend, and don't be surprised if you find the country and weather boring now and again when you move from a lively city to Ingolstadt, which isn't quite as lively.

The university does not provide much practical exposure.
Tips: The university helped me learn a lot about adas development and artificial intelligence. I had to do everything myself, though. It’s a little hard to get a scholarship, and I wasn’t able to get one. Student jobs provide financial safety, and the university mensa provides good-quality food that is cheaper than food served at restaurants outside of campus. The Student Affairs office is very helpful in responding to students’ concerns. Public transportation is not great, and the cost of living is high. At least the curriculum was good, so I was satisfied, and I learned a lot about automotive development and testing.
Dislikes (Part time work): There were some part-time jobs on campus, but the job market is small and dominated by technical positions. Also, there's not much available. The average pay is in line with government regulations. Sometimes it can be really hard to find a job on campus, and I sometimes had to travel an hour or more to get to work.

Great learning with challenges.
Tips: Students should find their accommodation beforehand. Contact the university representative for details and pick them up at the train station. Take some information regarding the city, like routes, taxis etc. Install the INVG bus app for transportation in city. Search regarding scholarship. For Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt, there is no tuition fee for the Automotive Production Engineering course. They are taking only the student union fee, which is around 70 to 80 euros. They have a top-class library, and the facilities include PCs, books, and private rooms for studying and practising presentations.
Dislikes (Indian Food): In Ingolstadt, there are many Indian restaurants, but you should expect to pay 20 to 30 Euros per person. Students mostly cook their food. It's healthier, and this also saves money. If you like Indian cooking, you can shop at Indian stores in Ingolstadt, where you can find Indian spices, lentils, and vegetables.

It can be hard, but opportunities are there.
Tips: The city here is small, so it is only natural that there are fewer opportunities. But if you’re skilled enough, you will be able to get student assistant roles at the university. If this doesn’t work out, Munich is nearby and has many job opportunities. It’s worth noting that the university can be a bit demotivating sometimes, but stick to your goals, and don’t let them get to you. Besides, the faculty is really welcoming and will guide and assist you throughout the semester. People are very friendly and love to socialize a lot. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the course, country and the university.
