5.0
A Challenging and rewarding Experience in an International Environment
Tips: Students should know that before joining the education system is quite independent and needs a good self-discipline. Professors are there to guide, but students are expected to be independent, take care of their studies and be responsible for meeting deadlines. Also it is very useful to know some German for the daily life.
Likes (Value for money): The university offers an open, international, academically stimulating environment. My day is usually spent attending lectures and seminars, doing assignments or projects and studying in the library. What I like most is meeting students from different countries and having chances to work together with them.
Dislikes (Student Life): The professors and lecturers are very knowledgeable and helpful. They are, on the whole, open and friendly, and students can usually get in touch with them during office hours or by e-mail if they need academic advice. The teaching method is a mix of theory and practice.

Friendly university, good campus in Bremen
Tips: In the initial few days, it will seem very hard, with all the documentation. But you will breathe some fresh air and instantly like the feel over here. People are softer, there is less noise, and every place seems very clean (Other than Hauptbahnhof, of course). But the grey weather is something that I really hate. Although over time it will get better. Just enjoy the master's life, make some friends, study hard, and you will enjoy it here.
Likes (Value for money): Value for money because, in terms of fees, I only pay semester fees, which cover the transportation cost on public transport as well. Bremen's public transport is really good; trams are clean, and buses are on time and spacious. So, I don't mind paying around 400 euros per semester for this.
Dislikes (Part time work): Honestly, there are very few options regarding part-time work. Odd jobs are available, but the demand is increasing day by day, and it is even getting harder to get a part-time job alongside studies. I have contacted multiple professors at the university to ask if they need any student assistants, but they mostly said they don't have funds to hire me. Although I have a minijob, which pays me 603 euros per month at a 15.20 euros per hour rate.

Masters Program at Bremen: Worth It, With Some Adjustments
Tips: There is a real cultural shift: Germans are direct and formal, which took some adjusting to. The weather is grey and rainy most of the year, so prepare for that. Admin tasks like visa and registration are very slow, so start early. Overall, I am satisfied with the programme and the university.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport here is genuinely one of the best things about living in Bremen. The tram and bus network (BSAG) connects campus to pretty much everywhere in the city; the buses/tram come frequently, so you are rarely waiting long. As a student, the semester ticket covers all public transport, so I don't pay anything extra to get around, which honestly makes a huge difference for the budget. It is clean, reliable, and easy to navigate even if you are new to the city. Whether it is going to the supermarket, city centre, or just exploring on weekends, I never feel like I need a car here.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Honestly, Indian food options here are pretty limited and expensive. There are a couple of Indian restaurants near the city center, but eating out regularly there costs around 12 to 18 EUR per meal, which adds up fast on a student budget. There is no proper Indian grocery store super close to campus either, so I usually take the tram into town to get spices and lentils from an Asian store, which is a bit of a hassle. Because of this, I end up cooking for myself almost every day rather than eating out, since it is way cheaper and I can actually make food that tastes like home. It would be great if there were more affordable Indian or South Asian options closer to the accommodation.

Cool college to study in
Tips: Uni Bremen is honestly a solid spot to study. The campus layout is super convenient, professors are actually approachable, and the overall student culture is very laid-back. The Mensa food gets the job done, but brace yourself for grey Northern German weather and rain most of the year. As long as you don't slack off on coursework early in the semester, living and studying here is a great experience.

An intensive but rewarding international law experience
Tips: Coming from Pakistan, the first few weeks felt a little unusual because Bremen is quieter and people generally keep to themselves, but things became comfortable once I made friends and understood the routine. The Translational Law program is only one year, so it moves quite quickly, and you need to keep up with the reading. I did not receive a scholarship and managed my expenses myself. Overall, I am happy with the course, especially the international classroom and different legal perspectives, though knowing some German definitely helps outside the university.
Likes (Public transportation): I rated public transportation a 5 because Bremen is easy to travel around using trams and buses. The university buildings, city centre, and Hauptbahnhof are well connected, so a car is not necessary. The semester ticket also makes regular travel free for students. Services can be less frequent late at night, but for classes, shopping, and everyday travel, the system is convenient and generally reliable.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I rated it 1 because proper Pakistani food is quite difficult to find in Bremen. There are some Indian, Turkish, and Middle Eastern restaurants, but the taste is different, and eating outside regularly becomes expensive, usually around 12 euros to 20 euros for a meal. I mostly prefer cooking at home because it is cheaper and I can prepare food the way I like. Hall meant that spices and other basic ingredients are available in Turkish and Asian grocery stores.

My college is very goooood
Tips: Moving to Germany and starting at the University of Bremen definitely comes with a sharp learning curve. You aren't just adjusting to a different lifestyle and culture in Northern Germany—you also have to adapt to an academic system that demands total self-reliance and independent time management.
That initial transition can feel overwhelming during your first semester, but it's 100% worth it. One huge advantage here is the internship setup. Because the campus is right next to the Technologiepark—and Bremen has massive industry ties in aerospace, logistics, and tech—finding relevant Werkstudent (working student) positions or research internships is very doable once you settle in. The university provides a solid platform, provided you're ready to embrace the culture shock and take charge of your own studies.

M.Sc in Neurosciences - Batch of 2027

A great place to learn, grow and explore
Tips: Moving from India to Germany is a big transition, especially adapting to a new academic system and more independent lifestyle. Communication style between professors and students is more friendly and equal-colleagues-like than a superior-inferior dynamic, and routines are more chill and easy-paced than how courses are usually in India. Over time I became more comfortable and particularly like the work-life balance here. - I did not avail of any scholarship. However, DAAD and other such sites do provide good scholarships especially for international students (NOTE: they can be quite competitive so it is important to research and apply early) -Overall. I am quite satisfied with my experience here. I particularly appreciate the research-oriented environment and the opportunities to gain practical experience. Also, Germany has given me a good balance of academia along with independence and building a good career & life.
Likes (Public transportation): For a city that is not as metropolitan as Hamburg, the city connection is pretty good, with trams and buses working through the night as well until 1:30 a.m. The next connection starts from 3:30 a.m. on weekdays and weekends. The city is well connected through trams, buses, and regional trains, and there are also e-bikes and e-scooters available for shorter distances. - Public transport is free if you have the university semester ticket or the Deutschland Ticket (50 euros) and is affordable and very convenient.
Dislikes (Internships): Guidance for finding scholarships depends on mentors. It is not always necessary that every department faculty member be enthusiastic about mentoring regarding this matter. In most cases, searching for internships falls on one's own shoulders. However, networking through online sites like LinkedIn and amongst colleagues always helps. - Available internships need to be researched throughout Germany, as just within the city of Bremen is not enough. However, I did find relevant internships here and across Germany.

Worth it. Not easy. I like it, you might not if you're aren't rigorous and intense yourself
Tips: Freedom of choice (a bit too much). Offices and bureaucratic processes were delayed and understaffed. Scholarships available but very rare. Depend on social or local political contributions, which require a high German-speaking level. I am satisfied, but not everyone's cup of tea. Don't risk it just for the sake of it.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Approachable during lectures. Very busy otherwise. Great structure in teaching. Use examples from your own field of work. Sometimes boring and repetitive within different modules. Everyone has a different style. It is not easy to score high grades. All faculty are Germans or, at the maximum, Italians.
Dislikes (Internships): You have to get the internships yourself; nobody is going to guide you to them. Also, it is technically illegal to work full-time while being a student. No provisions for internships within the course. Can only do so for the thesis. Moreover, there is a lot of competition for few positions; it's a good idea to have German-speaking skills to be able to work with technicians or support staff.

Freedom, flexibility, figure out on your own
Tips: Expect taking longer to finish the degree than expected. University offers a lot of freedom and flexibility. There would be a lot of international students in your class; Germans usually take courses provided in the German language. Overall being proactive and organized will make things work your way.
Likes (Public transportation): Very well connected to anywhere in the city even on weekends and also to the other nearby cities with regional trains. Also, night connections to your home anywhere in the city. Not just one but multiple connections to the university from your place of residence.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many Indian stores. Even if there are, they are small and mostly international and not specifically Indian stores. Although you might find most of the stuff you need, it's not as good as the Indian stores in other cities. Not many cheap varieties of restaurants either.

Welcoming university and friendly city Bremen
Tips: The cultural shifts were expected, as I knew before coming, but still adapting to those was a little hard initially, but as time passed, everyone adapted to them. Germans are very direct in conversations and very punctual. On Sundays, supermarkets are closed, and probably it was the biggest shift that I had to learn. Usually in India, on Sundays, people go out to buy things. I did not have any scholarships, and I didn't apply for one as well. But, anyway, I am very satisfied with the university; students are friendly, and everyone minds their own business without judging others. Although studies are expected to be totally self-sufficient. But adapting to these becomes easy within a few months. 100% recommended.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transport in Bremen is far better compared to other similar cities in Bremen. The tram/bus is frequent and well connected to every location. Even during nighttime, the N-buses are available throughout the city. Thanks to the semester ticket, we don't have to pay separately for tickets, so it's easy on the pockets. But the semester fees have increased too much in the last 2 semesters.
Dislikes (Safety): I had some bad experiences in Bremen regarding safety; I lost my phones, and even after knowing the location of the phones, the police failed to recover them. Although it is not the university's fault and it's not like everyone had the same experience, it is what I felt. Apart from campus security, there is a student union called Asta, which helps in several issues.

Tips: You can apply for the Deutschlandstipendium offered by Universität Bremen, but it's very competitive. I'm pretty much satisfied; the university provides all the necessary things to students. It's about how well students connect. Communication is the key. Numerous events for international students to connect with other people.

A welcoming university with good student life
Tips: Coming from West Bengal, the biggest adjustment for me was getting used to the quieter lifestyle, colder weather, and doing everything independently. It took some time to feel comfortable, but meeting other international students and joining university activities helped. I did not receive a scholarship, so I would suggest planning finance carefully and checking scholarship options early. Overall, I am satisfied with the university and course, although learning some German makes everyday life and social interactions much easier.
Likes (Public transportation): I gave transport top marks because getting to campus and moving around Bremen on the BSAG network is super easy. Tram 6 drops you directly at the uni, and as a female student, I feel completely safe riding trams and buses alone—whether I'm heading to classes, grabbing groceries, or meeting friends in the Viertel. The student semester ticket covers everything, so you don't have to worry about individual fares. Late-night N-buses run a bit less often, but daytime service is super reliable.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a few Indian restaurants in Bremen, but proper Bengal food is quite difficult to find. Eating at Indian restaurants regularly can also be expensive for a student, with a meal generally costing around 12 EUR to 20 EUR. I usually prefer cooking at home because it is cheaper and allows me to prepare familiar Bengal dishes according to my taste. Indian and Asian grocery stores make it possible to find most of the basic spices and ingredients.

Review for Universität Bremen.
Tips: Your experience at Uni Bremen depends heavily on your specific degree, but knowing German is a massive advantage—even for English-taught programs, having B1/B2 German makes daily life, administrative paperwork, and finding student jobs ten times easier.
The academic structure revolves around Bremen’s focus on research-based learning, meaning you won't be spoon-fed information. Professors expect you to drive your own research, manage assignment timelines independently, and dig into literature way beyond the lecture slides. If you're passive, you'll struggle, so taking the initiative from week one is essential.

A good university with an independent study environment
Tips: The biggest thing to know before coming to Uni Bremen is that nobody will hold your hand academically—you’re completely responsible for managing your own study schedule, assignment deadlines, and exam prep. The initial transition can be rough between getting used to the German language barrier, dreary Bremen weather, and dark winters, but you build a routine after a few months. I self-funded my degree without a scholarship, so budgeting carefully before landing in Germany is non-negotiable. Overall, I’m happy with my choice—you just have to take initiative and actually put yourself out there.
Likes (Public transportation): The University of Bremen is very well connected to the rest of the city through trams and buses. Public transport is frequent, reliable and makes it easy to reach the campus. The semester ticket also makes traveling quite affordable for us. Overall, transportation is convenient for attending classes as well as exploring Bremen and nearby places, which is why I rated it 5.
Dislikes (Part time work): I gave part-time work a 2/5 because finding a decent student job in Bremen is really tough if you don't speak fluent German. Most mini-jobs or Werkstudent roles—even basic customer service or café work—require at least B1/B2 German, so English-only opportunities fill up instantly. While I still want to settle in Germany long-term after graduation for the quality of life, finding part-time work to cover monthly expenses right now takes months of endless applications."

A very diverse experience
Tips: Moving to Germany was a surprisingly smooth transition for me—I honestly didn't deal with much culture shock at all. I’m not on any scholarship currently, but there are plenty of options like the Deutschlandstipendium or DAAD grants if you apply early. Overall, studying at Uni Bremen has been a great experience. The academic quality is solid, campus activities are well-organized, and finding a decent part-time student job (Werkstudent) to support yourself while studying is very manageable.

Good exposure and fun university.
Tips: Yes, there were cultural differences; acceptance and patience help. Change is good. No. For my course, 6.5/10, other specializations could be included in the course; the course is more learned towards robotics. They could include more computer vision and other domains of GenAI.
Likes (Safety): It feels safe; everyone minds their own business, and be mindful of your surroundings. I've had friends who have gotten robbed in the city, so always be aware of your surroundings; don't make an absent-minded mistake. No bad experiences in the city.
Dislikes (Part time work): It is difficult to find. Depending on the place, it varies from €13.90 to €16.00. A referral helps a lot here; use the bulletin board from the university. You need to reach out and be out of your comfort zone, mail professors, or go ask restaurants for open positions.

Liberal Open and Friendly
Tips: Moving to Bremen definitely comes with a bit of culture shock, but the key is putting yourself out there from week one. Germans value direct communication—people aren't being rude, that’s just how communication works here, so don't be afraid to ask questions or speak your mind clearly. If you stay isolated in your dorm room, settling in becomes ten times harder. Join student initiative groups on campus, attend orientation events, and make an effort to talk to classmates in lectures if you want a smooth, enjoyable transition.
Likes (Public transportation): It is top-notch and frequent, and availability is very good. Since you have access to the semester ticket, the trams and buses and the trains become easy. Since Bremen is well connected, you won't be facing connection issues, so yes, being on time matters, and the rest would be a cakewalk for you.
Dislikes (Internships): Guidance during internships is comparatively limited because interns are expected to work independent and take ownership of their tasks. There is very little scope of easy opportunities. Less spoon-feeding, so you need to be positive in understanding the requirements properly for it.

German University at it's best.
Tips: 1. Every class has a lecture class as well as a tutorial class, and tutorials are taken by Ph.D. students. Deadlines are important, and late submissions are not considered. 2. No, I do not have any scholarships. 3. Very satisfied with my university because the university organizes so many events to interact with everyone. The course is difficult, but seniors and tutors still help a lot. The country is very nice, peaceful, and relaxing.
Likes (Indian Food): I usually prefer cooking myself, and almost everything is available in German supermarkets and Indian stores. The restaurants have few Indian foods, but we learn a lot by cooking ourselves. Restaurants are both costly and affordable; we get rolls, pizza, burgers, and we're done.
Dislikes (Internships): Not much guidance is available for internships. Everything should be done on your own. Internships are there, but you need to search a lot. People need to search for the job opening on company and research institute websites or directly approach their professors.

Quality education with Great Student Life
Tips: If you're coming to Bremen for AI, the degree quality and research projects are great, but you need to prepare for life outside the classroom. Learn as much German as you can before landing—you can survive on campus with English, but basic German is a lifesaver for supermarket runs, admin paperwork, and finding student jobs. Also, start spamming WG-Gesucht for accommodation months in advance because the Bremen housing market gets crowded fast.
The academic system here requires total self-discipline. Professors won't babysit you, so balancing self-study for AI project work alongside cooking and cleaning takes real effort. Culturally, the strict punctuality and German respect for personal space felt a bit distant at first coming from India, but after a couple of months, you adapt. I didn't get any scholarships, but landing a HiWi job on campus covers my monthly living costs just fine. Between the strong AI research focus, reliable BSAG public transport, and high safety, it's definitely worth it.
Likes (Public transportation): Getting around Bremen is really easy; the university is well connected by trams and buses, and there is usually a connection every 5-10 minutes. As a student, it is also affordable because the semester ticket covers public transport. Compared to other cities, Bremen's tram/buses are clean and very convenient as well.
Dislikes (Internships): Guidance is mostly self-driven. There is no strong internship support system at the university, so most students end up relying on LinkedIn, personal networking, and emailing professors or companies. But Bremen has decent options through DFKI, Fraunhofer institutes, and local startups for AI/CS students.

An amazing place to be in, surrounded by very talented people.
Tips: I have transitioned in so many ways. I have never in my life cooked and lived without my family. But here I'm thinking every day what to cook. I learned how to cook here. I learned how to manage my expenses, studies, and part-time work altogether. Winter depression is really hard. This one year has taught me so much in so many ways and really shaped me into a new person. I'm very satisfied with the course, my university and my country. All the people in the university are always ready to help each other, that's the best part that I like about my university.
Likes (Value for money): Yes, the tuition fee at my place is justified. As my city is very small, the rent and supermarket prices are also very reasonable compared to Munich, Berlin, etc. Also, we get a student discount for the Deutschlandticket, which is very helpful for travelling all over Germany.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a few Indian restaurants in my locality, but they don't bring the taste of the original Indian food with the flavour and aroma in them. They make it for foreigners, which is very mild in taste. I prefer cooking myself at home. By doing this, I can make food according to my taste buds; also, sometimes we friends come together and cook something. In that way, we get to spend some time together.

My university life transition from India to Germany
Tips: It took me a while to get adjusted to life here, as it is different from India. I got to know about student initiatives, and I joined them. From then on, my life was different. There are different scholarship options available for students. Every year, they can check and apply.
Likes (Public transportation): While city is walkable and it's rare to use a bus unless you are staying a bit far from the university. University is located in the Center of the city and all the buildings are Next to each other. Also as a student you get Deutschland ticket where you can use it to travel whole country.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are a lot of architectural and civil engineering companies around if a student can speak German they are very high chances of getting a job directly here if not it is a bit struggle to find a job in the city
Student has to move out of Weimar if they are looking for English speaking jobs

Its best at what it does.
Tips: Bauhaus University is small, international, and project-oriented. Weimar is affordable and peaceful but has fewer jobs and big-city opportunities. Students should be proactive with projects, internships, German learning, and networking. It does best at what it does.
Likes (Value for money): Value for money gets a full 5/5 because studying at Bauhaus Weimar gives you top-tier German education for virtually no tuition. You only pay a basic semester fee (Semesterbeitrag), which already covers regional transit. Renting a room in Weimar—whether in Studierendenwerk dorms or a shared flat (WG)—is wildly cheaper than in cities like Munich or Berlin. Getting full access to design labs, architecture studios, and research facilities at a fraction of typical international study costs makes the ROI unbeatable.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I gave Indian food a 2/5 simply because Weimar is a small town in Thuringia where truly authentic food is hard to find. The couple of Indian restaurants here heavily hand-adjust their spices and recipes to match local German tastes. A basic meal out runs around €10–€20, which adds up fast. You'll find standard kebab spots, Italian places, and basic cafes, but if you want proper comfort food that actually tastes like home, you're better off getting spices from an Asian market and cooking in your apartment.

Bauhaus - Uni Weimar: Great for Research, But Prepare for the Small-Town Life
Tips: Before joining Bauhaus-Uni, you need to know that learning here is heavily project-based. Professors don't just lecture you; you're expected to spend endless hours in design studios, labs, or workshops working on practical, hands-on tasks. Weimar is a small, quiet cultural city—not a bustling metropolis like Berlin—so social life mostly revolves around your classmates and studio projects.
While English gets you through international Master’s courses, learning German is pretty much required for daily life, dealing with local landlords, and integrating into the town. On the money side, tuition is free save for the €300 semester fee (which covers your Thüringen transit pass), and rent in Weimar is very affordable. Look into DAAD scholarships early if you need extra monthly stipends, but overall, it's a great spot if you thrive on creative independence.

Student life at Bauhaus University Weimar
Tips: Be open to the culture; don't stay in your own bubble. Explore different opportunities provided by the university. Join initiatives to get high chances of scholarship. Make use of Erasmus and short-term blended intensive programs. This is a small university, but the number of opportunities is insane; it's up to the students on how to grab them.
Likes (Quality of faculty): They are really open and accessible. Bauhaus has a unique style of teaching that can be only experienced here. It is project- and assignment-based learning. Only a university with 4 different faculties, especially art, architecture, civil, and media.
Dislikes (Internships): It really depends on the job market and the courses you take. My course didn't have many opportunities nearby, and often people had to move to different states to do it. We don't have mandatory internships. Many companies don't know what digital engineering is, so it's also a problem while applying for jobs.

Good international experience with a practical learning environment
Tips: Students should be prepared to take responsibility for their studies and manage their time independently. The academic environment is international, and the course involves technical and practical work, so having a basic interest in programming and engineering concepts is helpful. It is also good to arrange accommodation and other formalities early.
I did not avail of any scholarship. I am currently funding my studies and living expenses through my own financial resources. I would recommend students to check the university and external scholarship opportunities early, as some applications have specific deadlines and eligibility requirements.
Likes (Value for money): Top rating for value for money simply because you get a world-renowned Bauhaus education for zero tuition fees—you only pay the basic Semesterbeitrag (around €300). That fee covers your regional transit ticket across Thuringia, which alone saves you hundreds. Plus, living costs in Weimar are way more affordable than cities like Munich or Berlin, yet you still get access to top-tier design labs, media studios, and 24/7 library resources. For the quality of hands-on project work and international atmosphere you get, it’s an incredible return on investment.
Dislikes (Internships): I gave internships a low score because Weimar is a small, historic town with almost no local industry or corporate presence. While Bauhaus-Uni has basic career counseling, you’re basically on your own when it comes to landing a Werkstudent position or internship. You have to cold-apply to firms in bigger cities like Berlin, Leipzig, or Frankfurt with very little active placement help or direct networking events from the university. I wish the faculty had stronger industry pipelines and course-specific corporate connections instead of leaving students to figure it all out independently.

Bauhaus for internationals and experiences in the Bauhaus
Tips: There was, of course, a cultural shift, especially in the course curriculum, but professors will make sure that you follow the course well. Never shy away from asking questions whenever unclear. The International Student Council is also very helpful, and try to socialize with people, especially in winter. Although I did not avail myself of any scholarships, there are possibilities. One can apply for DAAD scholarships yearly. Germany is a beautiful country, and Bauhaus has the best professors, who have been experienced in the field for more than 2 decades; the course curriculum is always designed to meet industry standards.
Likes (Value for money): It covers the Deutschlandticket, museums, and other libraries in Thuringia that can also be visited for free. As someone who often travels in Germany, having a Deutschlandticket is hassle-free and affordable for students. I have also availed myself to visit a couple of UNESCO heritage sites for free.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are no Indian grocery stores in the city; however, they are available in a nearby city, which is 30 minutes away from Weimar. But there are a couple of Indian restaurants in the city, which are pretty reliable. I mostly cook for myself, or I eat in Mensa (Mensa serves Indian dishes at times).

Strong academics, smooth transition, one tip: learn German
Tips: The courses here are well-structured, and professor support is genuinely great. I came from a naval architecture and shipbuilding background. The transition wasn't difficult, though there were differences in food, culture, and a more self-directed, research-oriented approach to education. There is no tuition fee. I worked as a Hiwi (student assistant) to cover the living expenses. German language skills also matter beyond the classroom, even in English-thought programs, especially for part-time or post-graduation jobs. I am very satisfied with my university, course, and time in Germany.

University that bring joy and love to your life
Tips: Students should know that they should focus on learning the German language. They should be confident and should be expressive. The students coming here should not panic and ask for help from anyone without hesitation because the people here are very kind and helpful. I didn't get any scholarships. I came on my own The course is very good and very demanding Overall I will recommend you all.
Likes (Public transportation): The transportation system in weimar is excellent; in every 10-15 minutes we have buses, the buses are comfortable and are time-punctual as well The transportation charges are covered under the academic semester fee of the university, which is 320 euros per semester approximately.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are many companies that are available here but there is a problem of language, like, as a student, you need to learn the German language at least at a B2 level; the job roles and salary packages vary and are very diverse But I can guarantee it's very good.

Easy going, academic, less opportunistic
Tips: The first thing is you will feel the biggest cultural shock: none will talk to you even if you cry, laugh, or whatever. But once you are comfortable and you know how things work, you will be comfortable. I am so much more satisfied with the country; it was my fault that 'I didn't learn German beforehand at least till the B2 level. I am not very satisfied with my university's honesty; the course name is also like, you have to explain to everyone what you are doing, but the content of the course is really technical and computer science, machine learning, and security-oriented.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is really good here. There are several buses running with a good time difference, including trains and all. That's free because we get a Deutschland ticket from our university. Only ICE is something you can't travel with. For buses, trams, and trains anywhere in Germany, you can travel for free. It is very convenient.
Dislikes (Internships): I gave internships a low rating because the local job market around Weimar is practically dead right now, and the university makes things worse by cutting back on student assistant roles (HiWi positions), claiming they’re completely out of budget. When you ask around for help, everyone just gives you the generic 'keep applying' speech without offering any actual leads or connections. Even alumni or people from your own home country who managed to land solid roles won’t lift a finger to refer you.
You have to accept early on that you are completely on your own out here. By all means, network and be friendly with everyone you meet, but never rely on anyone to throw you a lifeline. You're way better off looking for jobs outside Weimar in the bigger German cities, so stop waiting around for a favor and just spam applications on your own.
