My Experience Transitioning to University Life in Germany
Tips: It has been an easy transition to Germany, although getting used to the language, the culture, the weather, and independent living has taken some time. I have noticed a change in the culture, particularly in the way people communicate, the sense of timing, and the attitude towards education and personal space. I have not applied for any scholarships, so I do not have much information about the scholarship program and the allowance. I am really happy with the university and the course, as there is enough exposure to the real world and to learning AI thoroughly.

Reality of German public universities!!
Tips: There are a lot of things to know when coming to Germany for studies. One of the most important things is that public universities are in tier-2 cities, and because of this, most of the people speak only German. There are scholarships such as DAAD, etc. Based on some eligibilities and requirements.
Likes (Student Life): My college has a very structured academic and also they have a lot of opportunities to work with lecturers and on study projects, which helps us to build our knowledge quite often. There are communities based on nationality, department, etc. This will also help in many areas.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Most of the restaurants are German restaurants, and Indian restaurants are also quite expensive, and the taste is below average. On average, if you're Indian, it's better to cook at your house than to go out to eat Indian food. The Indian food is specifically bland because most of the customers are German, and they hate spicy food (even minimal spice).

a rewarding and research-oriented experience at BTU
Tips: Students should know that BTU has an international and research-oriented environment. Moving to Germany requires some adjustments, especially bureaucracy, weather, food habits, language, an independent lifestyle, etc but don't worry, the transition will become easier with time.

Very friendly and peace full environment.
Tips: After getting your university offer, you have to apply for a student ID on their website. I would suggest that before landing in Germany, you also learn the language. BTU conducts more events for international students to get to know each other. After reaching to the university, you have to get the health insurance card and find a house doctor, which is more important and difficult to get.

University for research oriented studies.
Tips: I am currently in Germany, so language will be my priority. I am very satisfied with my course, and the lectures are very supportive. BTU University is more related to research oriented and currently research related projects like hydrogen-based fuel cell technology, storage manufacturing, and electric propulsion system-based research are currently trending

Affordable education with good career opportunities.
Tips: The transition can take some time, especially due to language barriers and culture difference. I did not receive any scholarship, affordable education didn't make me feel that I need one. Overall, I am satisfied with my university, course, and life in Germany.
Likes (Value for money): Germany offers great value for the money due to low tuition fees at public universities. The quality of education and good career opportunities make it worth the cost. And the semester ticket, which you get from university with that you get the free transportation across the whole city.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food options are quite limited, and eating out is quite expensive, usually costing around 15-25 euros per meal. That's why I prefer cooking at home more often, because it's economical and I prepare food according to my taste. There are some Indian restaurants, but the variety is very limited.
