MBA European/Asian Management - Batch of 2022

4.4

A perfect foot hold to enter Germany and begin your journey in the EU culture.

Tips: I chose to be part of the culture of Germany/EU, and of course, there is a cultural shift from polychronic to a monochronic culture. This is a good thing. Embrace, learn and enjoy this culture and it will help you, in turn, appreciate your home culture as well. There are a few scholarships available from DAAD, a loan, also a 500 Euro recommendation gift for joining the college. The university is located in Bremen, which is a relatively small town and much cheaper than the big cities. Jobs have to be applied online so starting from Bremen was the best. The university and course were decent. Nothing exceptional but a good basic MBA. Language is the only barrier to setting up in Germany.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Teaching and faculty are good. That was the best part of college. The teaching was less theoretical and mostly practical. There were group assignments and presentations. You as a student, won't feel any discrimination or biases of any kind.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): The university itself does not help arrange any interviews, meet-ups, or company placements. You need German language fluency if you want to apply for jobs and internships. (only IT jobs available in English). You do not need a sponsor visa via this route of doing studies and then working. You just need to find a job in your field. Salary packages are capped by the government. Minimum after an MBA is 45,000/annum Euro. Usually, 55,000 - 80,000 is offered, besides perks. Language is the only barrier.

M.Sc. in Electronics Engineering - Batch of 2018

4.3

A grand German adventure in a quaint student town.

Tips: The culture shock that you will get is only initially. But once you find friends, it’s very easy going and you will love the quaint town of Bremen. You might find loads of part time opportunities. Scholarships are difficult but you can definitely apply for them. I was very satisfied because I got great faculty, amazing friends and an internationally recognised degree. So all the best.

Likes (Post study jobs): You will get all the help from the faculty, the alumni and the students who are already working as Werkstudent (student work). Sponsored visas, well, not so many nowadays as there is a language barrier for full time jobs. Starting packages can vary based on your experience and job role. But on average, it’s between 40,000 - 50,000 euros for maybe developers. It can go even higher if you get selected in R&D.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food in restaurants are quite expensive. It will be better to buy stuff or ingredients from Indian stores and cook for yourself. It will be cheaper and taste better.

MBA European/Asian Management - Batch of 2023

Best public university for students.

Tips: Well trained faculty plus less fees compared to other universities. The university has organised all events and supported getting internships. The campus is good and well maintained. The culture and atmosphere were really nice.

Likes (Part time work): Good campus and safe for students. Culture and atmosphere are good for students who want to study and meet new people. Life was really good for students to create events or other social and cultural activities. All other facilities are available to read and study and get information.

Dislikes (Public transportation): Well trained and practical oriented staff available. We got all the materials to read and learn. We got assignments or notes to solve and study about subject. We got individual support for exams and gave every other support to graduate and get a good job.

MBA European/Asian Management - Batch of 2026

Bremen is a small city, well connected and extremely punctual.

Tips: This acts as a good gateway to your career in Europe because it's a public university, but if you really need quality studies, maybe this might not be the first option. But as per the tuition fee and cost of living, it is really worth it, because other universities charge way more than this. The professors are helping, but the only thing is that you need to talk and be kind of pushy to be helpful with the opportunities outside. The university also gives a mandatory certificate, which makes it a bit easier to get internships, as the tax for the compulsory internships is very minimal and even the hours do not count.

Likes (Public transportation): Bremen is a small city, well connected and extremely punctual. The frequency of the buses and trams is also better than in other cities I have lived in. Many times I had to go home late from the city Centre and there was at least a bus every one hour.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): It took me a while to understand the job market. Even though I did not get direct help from the University, talking to a lot of seniors and pass-outs helped me and made me realise that knowing many people is really important here. There is no such thing as placements. There is, of course, a career guide department that helps you work on the CV, attend interviews in a different cultural communication style. I really think if you network efficiently, there is scope; if you do not put those efforts, it is a bit complicated to get the desired job.

Practical exposure and nice learning environment.

Tips: It's very important to be dynamic and adjust if you are moving to another country. Do respect the culture and people of you want to learn and network. I have availed a DAAD scholarship which of 1000 euros, as I was very active in college and associated with NGOs helping international students.

Likes (Public transportation): There are trams everywhere and it is well connected to different parts of the city. Also, there is an option of travelling by buses and trains. The good part is that with a semester ticket, provided by the university, all these public transport and even the local library are accessible and free.

Dislikes (Student Life): Bremen is a small city and there are less option for socialising. So, for better vibes, nearby cities like Hamburg are better. I used to travel a lot to different cities. During college days, I used to visit cultural functions organised by different countries on a weekly basis. I also joined a local event group for language improvement.

MBA Global Management - Batch of 2025

4.5

Ideal for anyone who is willing to work smart and hard.

Tips: Be ready for a massive cultural shift and for a super busy schedule. You would have to do your research and keep yourself updated with everything as nothing will be given to you. In the end your ROI depends on how much hard work and smart-work your are able to pull off. College offers brilliant infra and ecosystem. You just have to ensure that you make the best use of all the facilities and options.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Super approachable and always responds over email and for a quick chat post class. Teaching methods are quite modern, interactive and based on a practical approach. We had over 20+ nationalities in our class, making each and every discussion broader and more diverse.

Dislikes (Internships): There is no guidance as such. There are general seminars but you have to pick what best works for you and use your own research and then implement as per your requirements. Availability depends on which location you are looking at. Bremen has limited options but Hamburg and other major cities offer quite a lot of options.
