The university is very big and professors are very kind and helpful.
Tips: It is not necessary that you settle here. There are multiple factors. You need to have a good job and have good knowledge of German too. You need to find a job by yourself and the university will not help in this case so you need to be independent.
Likes (Indian Food): There are lots of options to eat but in the veg section. You will find something that has an Indian taste. But all the foods that I have tasted were very good. They are also cheap for students so you can buy them at a less price. But in the supermarket, you find multiple options and also there are lots of Indian markets.

FAU is a research-heavy and interdisciplinary university.
Tips: FAU is a research-heavy and interdisciplinary university, apt for those who are self-motivated and want to deep drive into niche areas of Science and engineering. The structure is more flexible than rigid, so students need to be independent learners. Also Erlangen is not a big city, so be prepared for a quieter student life, especially if you're used to the buzz of metro. That being said, Nuremberg is just 20 minutes away. I did receive two scholarships, DAAD PROMOS and the FAU Graduation Scholarship for short-term academic mobility (for my thesis). I applied through the university portals. Both were one time payment scholarships. The freedom to choose modules switch focus areas and be part of research projects has made a huge difference. The pros are approachable, and there's plenty of support for career development. Materials Science and Engineering at FAU offers both depth and flexibility. I have worked on everything from corrosion to electrocatalysis and even dipped my toes in ML for energy materials. Germany isn't perfect, but it has given me academic freedom, affordability and a sense of self I wouldn't trade for anything.

Very academic oriented, but not so happening socially.
Tips: The quality of education is very good. You get maximum depth in any subject you choose to study. Professors and tutors are helpful and friendly, as per my experience. Assignments are not so easy, but really helps to enhance our knowledge. Totally, a simple and easy going university.

Master of Science in Electromobility - Batch of 2026
4.4
Decent college. But going for TUs is advisable. Also should come with some professional experience.
Tips: The course lets you specialize in the field of your choice. It's very flexible. Machine Learning is very popular at FAU. Also they are good at Robotics. If these are your areas of interest, joining the course would be recommended. These topics have lots of research and work opportunities within the university.
Likes (Indian Food): There are really good Indian restaurants available, and also Indian stores are there. The pricing is decent. A meal will cost you between 15 to 20 euros per person. I prefer cooking at home, like most of the students. All the groceries that you need are available at the supermarket or Indian stores.
Dislikes (Internships): It is really competitive and not so many internships are available as there are many students. There are a few big companies in the area, but they prefer students with work experience. Also German Language is highly desired by recruiters. Not much guidance is available. They are relevant to the course.

MSc Computational Engineering - Batch of 2027
4.6
University is known for its best research across Germany.
Tips: The cultural shift is very important in Germany. You have to accept what they are doing and follow the rules and regulations properly. I haven't applied for any scholarship yet as I am managing my expenses through my part time job and I am satisfied with the university's work ethic and supportiveness.
Likes (Student Life): I spend my day in lectures or the library at the university. Many seminars, which are important for post study jobs and innovation, are organised in the university but I prefer online seminars only which are available in English. I am not currently involved in any community or student club but if one wants then there are clubs available for it.
Dislikes (Part time work): Currently, part-time jobs are hard to get as there is are many of competition for them but after getting one, you can get around 12.80 euros - 14.53 euros per hour as per the job field. Jobs are easily manageable as you have to set availability 1 week ago and if you have lectures, you can set availability for the evening or else you can leave that spot for others who are free at that time.
