In Germany, there are no tuition fees for public universities.
Tips: There are a lot of Indian students here, so after coming here, I made a lot of new friends. All of them were so kind to me. So, my transition period was very smooth. Also, the weather in Germany is not as bad as the weather in Finland or Russia. Some cultural shifts happen on campus. I try to join in if I am free that day. I haven't gotten any scholarships yet. I'm hoping to get an RA position next winter semester. I am fully satisfied with my university. My course of study is Environment and Resource Management, and it is really interesting. Germany is also a beautiful country, and I think you would like it too.
Likes (Value for money): In Germany, there are no tuition fees for public universities, so you don't have to pay anything. At BTU, you may have to pay 340 euros per semester, but you also get a semester ticket that is valid for all of Germany! So, it's truly value for money.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs aren’t that available, only if you're an RA. You have to rely on off-campus jobs only, which are very hard to find now. If you don’t know German well, then it will be a huge problem to find a job. If you do a part-time job, then it’s really manageable to perform academic tasks simultaneously. You have to choose your course wisely so that you can balance your job and study. The average payout for part-time jobs is 12.82 euros per hour now, the lowest salary you can get. Though many companies or restaurants pay more than this, this amount is the minimum wage they have to give.

Flexible course, small classes, low living cost and affordable city.
Tips: In the M.Sc. in AI at BTU Cottbus, the students have to be self-driven because they are expected to manage their own learning. While the course is taught in English, knowing basic German will help in students' daily lives. The classes are small, and the cost of living is low. There are a lot of restaurants in the city, but I don't like the food here. It's made according to German tastes, less spicy and less salty, and that’s why I don't like it, but many students still eat there. But here in Cottbus, there are five or six Indian restaurants where you can eat your favourite food, and the cost is also cheap.
Likes (Safety): The city I live in is totally safe because it's not too big and not too small. You have the police force everywhere for your protection. Best of all, I've never heard of any criminal cases since I've been living here. This city is really safe.

Perfect work-life balance.
Tips: Make sure to find accommodation before arriving at BTU Cottbus, or you might face a long, stressful city registration and housing search. Finding some part-time work won't be too difficult, and since there are no tuition fees, your finances will be much easier to manage. Make sure you focus on academics and don't neglect your German language classes. With a Deutschland ticket, the transportation is free for the entire semester. It costs you around 298€ for the entire semester, and you can avail yourself to travel in any means of transportation all over Germany except ICE trains. City and regional transportation are included.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I need to cook by myself rather than eating outside because of the pricing. If you stay in a group, your monthly food expenses can drop to 150 or maybe even less. There are a few Indian restaurants, but you'll probably find them expensive. I would suggest learning how to cook before you come.

A supportive and enriching college experience.
Tips: The course you selected must be in a good supportive environment with dedicated faculty and good resources. It is important to be self-motivated as the coursework can be demanding at times. Getting involved in student activities and building a network early on can really enhance your experience.
Likes (Public transportation): Student life here is vibrant and well-balanced. There are plenty of events, clubs, and activities that help students connect, relax, and enjoy their time outside academics. The campus has a welcoming atmosphere, and it’s easy to make friends and feel part of a community. Overall, it really enhances the whole college experience.
Dislikes (Part time work): The faculty is highly knowledgeable, supportive, and approachable. They explain concepts clearly, encourage critical thinking, and are always willing to help students outside of class hours. Their teaching methods are engaging, and they create a positive learning environment that motivates me to do better.

A rewarding academic journey.
Tips: Before enrolling in a course, students should research the course structure, facilities, and campus. It's also essential to understand the academic expectations, teaching style, and available support services. Students should budget and plan for living expenses. While there are some pathways to permanent settlement, such as the skilled worker program, the requirements are often strict and visa timelines can be uncertain, which makes overall feasibility rather difficult. In this country, public transportation is reliable, fast, and very well connected. From one state to another, you can take trains, buses, or other public transportation, and they all run on time. All urban and rural areas are mostly covered, which makes travelling between cities very easy.
