4.0

Settling In, Studying, and Staying Safe in Germany.

Tips: The move from India to Germany took some adjusting; the pace of life here is slower and more structured, punctuality and rules matter a lot here, and small talk and socialising are more reserved initially. Bureaucracy was probably the steepest learning curve. I didn't avail any scholarship; rather, I funded my whole study here, but you can get a lot of available scholarships, which are awarded by the German government depending on the academic journey or extra solicited work around. Overall satisfied. TU Clausthal's IM course is more for computer Science students, but it also fits perfectly for students from other fields. The projects and studies do require genuine effort here, as I believe no one wants to just pass and move forward, rather, one must study more in order to get the intricate meaning behind it, including the subjects that complete the degree in that sense, so just studying isn't enough.

Likes (Safety): Well-lit streets and pathways, especially around the student wohnheim, make it feel unsafe to walk out. Emergency well connected to the dorms, and monitoring takes place as well. 1. Well-lit streets and pathways. 2. Emergency call points. 3. Well-connected transportation. 4. Campus wohnheim doesn't allow hostile beings in.

Dislikes (Indian Food): 1. Even though there are a few Indian restaurants and food stores close by, the choice available is limited when compared with that in my native country because some dishes are simply absent, others are just simpler versions, and the prices are comparatively higher than those for local cuisine. The restaurants are: 1. German / Harz specialities, typical of Gasthaus, seasonal food and moderate pricing. 2. Italian – few Italian restaurants other than Pizza and Schnitzel. 10- 15 euros. 3. Bakers – cheap meals for students. 3- 7 euros. I generally cook for myself because it is more economical, and I occasionally dine out.

MSc in Digital Technologies - Batch of 2027

4.1

Academic Excellence, Needs a bit efforts

Tips: The language in which the course is going to be taught. Whether it will be in German or English, and at which level. What are the majors and minor they are offering? Do you offer any scholarships or not? For study purposes, I'm quite satisfied; it's just a bit of a small city.

Likes (Quality of faculty): You can ask anything you didn't understand to your faculty, in particular, in my experience, whatever doubts I have, I normally solve with my faculty members. And they are highly intelligent; they can even help you with any research you are doing in the respective field you are in.

Dislikes (Internships): The city is a bit smaller, so we have to migrate to a bigger city near it. To find more options for internships, basically for me IT. If you find work from home, then it would be better since you won't have to migrate and go to other places.

Good quality of study with great opportunities.

Tips: Learning the German language is the main priority, and a very good grip on English for study is the main thing. Another thing is to learn cooking and the habit of cleaning one's own things. It's very important to learn everything and to be prepared for everything.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Student life is good while staying in dorms and staying with students from different countries, playing with them, and studying with them. Job opportunities are also good with outstanding payments as part-time student jobs. Good experience as a student here and great opportunities.

Dislikes (Value for money): The faculty is very good with extra knowledge and all, and also with great research options and further Ph.D. opportunities. All the faculty are very good with nature and very helpful and supportive of students. Great respect we are getting being a student.

Best place for self-study and to build a strong academic portfolio.

Tips: The courses and people here are very good and friendly. Projects and reports can be turned into highly valuable research papers and theses. It's a great place if you want to focus on self-study. However, if you want to extend your course and do part-time jobs, taking admission here and living in nearby cities is the best option.

Likes (Safety): This place is safe compared to others. I haven't heard of any theft incidents, except for misplaced parcels. Emergency services, including fire and police, arrive within 5 minutes.

Dislikes (Part time work): The location is on a hillside, and the nearest city for part-time jobs is at least a 40-90 minute commute away. There are also very few part-time job opportunities in the Clausthal area, aside from university positions or assistance roles. Hannover or Braunschweig are more preferable options for students.

Practical learning is incorporated into every subject, and the program is research-focused.

Tips: The travel time is long, and there are limited opportunities nearby. The course design is well-equipped, and the university is well-equipped. Classes are large, and some teachers often delay lectures. Exams are very challenging. Practical learning is incorporated into every subject, and the program is research-focused.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The course structure is good and the teaching is effective. The practical approach to each subject is commendable and exams are well scheduled. While HiWi jobs are available, they are not consistently offered. However, some professors don't teach effectively, and courses are often delayed.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking at home. The food quality outside isn't great and prices are high. There are mostly pizzerias and small cafes and doner is widely available but food isn't cheap. Indian restaurants are also expensive. Decent food costs around 10 euros.

The college provides excellent resources for studying.

Tips: Students should explore all available opportunities and thoroughly assess if the chosen course aligns with their goals. They should also carefully examine the financial implications of pursuing the program as surviving without financial stability is challenging even after admission.

Likes (Safety): The town I lived in had a small population. The police were very cooperative. Safety is a major concern for international students and I experienced no discrimination. Everyone was friendly.

Dislikes (Student Life): It was a good experience. I enjoyed my college days. Everyone was completely friendly and the faculty was really good. The college provides excellent resources for studying which gives students the best possible learning experience.
