3.4
TU Ilmenau - Affordable and with a Major Desi Community.
Tips: Transition is easy, as there is a major sub-continent's 'desi' community at the college. You won't face a major cultural shift and would find a nearby Indian shop carrying most spices and Indian stuff as well. As for scholarships, the college offers a 500u20ac semester grant. Since there is no education fee, that grant covers a student's major expenses. The university is nice, and the course is really tough, so be prepared to fail and to work hard to succeed. You can study at your own pace, whatever subjects you like, but be sure to target at least 20 credits a semester. Getting stuck into work or part-time could easily lead to failing the course and losing your student visa unless you find another course/university to join. I personally covered most of my major coursework before looking and starting at my current Werkstudent position. Overall, college is nice, really affordable and a course that does help a lot. But be prepared to look for work, and the time it would take to get a job in the current economy. One major, and very important thing, please learn the German Language to at least conversational B2 before coming to Germany. You can manage in English, but you will need German to actually be able to live.
Likes (Safety): Quite a small town, and extremely safe. You'll be able to move around places, and people are more than welcoming, as most know that it's a major University area. You might face issues with the language barrier if you don't know at least B2 conversational German. So try to ensure you have that at least.
Dislikes (Student Life): Decent college life, but college is in a small town, rather, it's a college town with nearly half the population being students. There are no movie theatres, malls, clubs or any places for recreational activities. You'll most likely be travelling to other places for fun. Outdoor stuff would be fine, like hiking, but college events are not something to write home about. Only the college fest in June is the best part of the year.

Nice small town university
Tips: It's a small university town. A lot fewer people than the big city university has. It is good; courses are challenging compared to India's, and you have to work hard. Tuition fees are lower, and you have the Deutschland ticket, so you can travel in public transport for free in all of Germany. Plus, small towns have less expensive accommodation; it is cheap, with lots of Indian students and diverse students. Lots of activities to do. Culture is really good.

Plus, small towns have less expensive accommodation; it is cheap, with lots of Indian students and diverse students. Lots of activities to do. Culture is really good.
Dislikes (Part time work): It's a very small town, so part-time jobs are fewer. Plus, you need basic German language knowledge to get a part-time job. You can also travel 1 hour to the nearby city of Erfurt for a part-time job; there you also need basic German language knowledge. And traveling is hectic.

My 4.6-Year Life at TU Ilmenau.
Tips: German language basics greatly help. Self-time management is very important. Getting and processing information in an orderly and active way is most important. Although there are various international organizations to help students, one should always take the initiative to get self-info.
Likes (Value for money): TU Ilmenau is a public university that offers studies almost free of charge. There is only a small amount of semester contribution needed, which also gives almost as much return as public transport, library usage, and various study-related software usage. Again, the city also provides cheap living costs, compared to big cities.
Dislikes (Part time work): Ilmenau is a small city. It is also a university city, where a large part of the population is students. So, it is hard to get a part-time job. Students need to go to nearby cities to get a job. There are options such as labor works, but they affect study a lot.

Great , Quite to learn grow and build your career
Tips: Students should be prepared for a peaceful and nonchaotic environment. Ilmenau is a very small town and full of greenery. But you get almost everything here in this small town. TU Ilmenau is very research-oriented. The international community are very active, and they have multiple clubs and organizations.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): After graduation from a German university, the pathway is clear for international students who want to live here. You will get up to 18 months on a job seeker visa, and then after landing a job and crossing a certain threshold in salary, you are eligible for a blue card, and then you can apply for PR after a few months.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I rated it 4/5 because I believe Germany has very good opportunities for international students, and yes, language plays a very important factor. Learning German makes things easy. Many people get full-time jobs after graduation, but effort is needed in every field, as the market is very competitive.

A good place to study,learn and grow.
Tips: I have transitioned after coming here; the way I was back in India is completely different from the version of me. I have actually experienced a lot of cultural differences between India and Germany. No, I did not have any scholarships; normally if you have a stellar profile, you will land a scholarship easily. I am very much satisfied with TU Ilmenau.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The academic staff here are all highly knowledgeable, and I find them extremely helpful regarding the explanation of topics, and also they are extremely friendly and humble. If a student has any doubt, they can contact the professor during academic hours or take an appointment to resolve their doubts.
Dislikes (Part time work): I rated part-time work low because Ilmenau is a tiny university town, so local job options are extremely limited compared to bigger cities. Unless you get lucky with a HiWi research position on campus, finding an off-campus student job without fluent German is nearly impossible. Pay is fine when you do land something, but expect months of waiting and heavy competition for the few open spots in town.

Nice university international friendly.
Tips: It's a nice university with many options for degrees. It has a very international crowd, especially Asian. But it is very small; there is not much to do here, and getting jobs (part-time, full-time) is difficult. If students want to come to study, then it's a nice place, but if they are thinking the learnings would be like Canada and Australia, then it's not the right place to come.
Likes (Safety): Ilmenau is a very safe and peaceful town, unlike big cities such as Berlin. Because it's a small town with an international crowd, it's quite safe. This town is not very crowded, and mostly old people live in East Germany, so it's part of that. And also the town is quite pretty.
Dislikes (Part time work): Because of many factors. To get a part-time job, you need German, and it is not always available. As the location is a town and a big city, jobs are quite difficult to find. If someone wants to come just for study, then it's good. But many students end up taking loans, which are difficult to pay back while living here.

TU Ilmenau-One of the Best german University
Tips: Like there are many cultural differences that are present in Germany, and you will get acclimatized to them once you start living here. I didn't get any external scholarship. I am satisfied with my university and data science course and Germany. This is what I will say.
Likes (Student Life): Apart from all other colleges I have known from my friends living in Germany, TU Ilmenau is a vibrant place where there are many clubs and societies that can help you attain knowledge beyond classwork. There are many clubs in filmmaking, arts, and vehicle racing.
Dislikes (Part time work): Like, there are very limited part-time opportunities in Ilmenau, and it is hard to land a role if you don't speak German. It is very difficult to manage part-time while studying parallelly because the examination structure here is different in comparison to India.

Germany is challenging but also rewarding.
Tips: The transition is not easy. Apart from the cultural shift, there is also a shift in the academic culture. In Germany, at least for masters degree programs, there is a lot of freedom in terms of selecting when and how many courses do you want to do each semester. This is be a great and a terrible thing at the same time because it gives students a lot of freedom - but as Indian students we are not accustomed to this freedom and I often see Indian students misusing this freedom.
Likes (Safety): The student union is very helpful, especially in terms of safety. But you have to approach them of your own accord. Sometimes they are very busy and don't reply to emails promptly. The easiest solution is to go to their office during their working hours and address your issues in person. There are some instances of racism but I have personally not experienced any racism.
Dislikes (Student Life): Depending on what courses you take for the semester, there can be between 10 - 20 hours of lectures per week. You spend approximately the same amount of time studying and preparing for the coming lectures. So there is a lot of free time, where you can work part time. Legally, you are allowed to work 20 hours per week as a student during the lecture period and 40 hours per week outside the lecture period. You can earn enough money while working part time to sustain yourself if your expenses are not extravagant. There are many events organized on the campus and I often participate. There are many student clubs on the campus and it is easy to participate in any of them.
