MSc in Global Software Development - Batch of 2026

4.0

Good for practical learning and personal growth.

Tips: Check your course first if it aligns with your current studies, then, good. Also keep in my it is a Hochschule it is an applied university, so if you want to do research, look for another option, but good for other purposes. Teach/Management courses are usually filled with students from south asian countries. If you want diversity in those courses, that could be difficult, but apart from that, I find the university quite a good place for studying, socialising, and evolving your overall personality.

Likes (Safety): Because Germany is quite safe. People are very friendly on campus, and in general the city is quite peaceful as well, you will hardly find anyone who is a threat or makes you feel uncomfortable. Personally, I have never had any bad experience that makes me question the safety of the city or university.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Because of the current market situation, nothing bad with the university and in general, universities are responsible for your campus placement, they can invite companies, but you would still need to apply through their portals. Basically, everyone is on their own. And it depends on the course and the level of German language proficiency.

Good University overall surely a good option

Tips: The academics and professors at Fulda are great—very hands-on and approachable whenever you need help. But the biggest reality check is the job market. Fulda is a small town, so local student jobs and graduate roles are pretty scarce. You have to be prepared to broaden your job search outside Fulda. Most of us commute to Frankfurt, Offenbach, or nearby industrial hubs in Hessen for Werkstudent positions and full-time roles post-graduation.

Likes (Value for money): Value for money gets a full 5/5 because studying at Fulda is practically tuition-free. You only pay a small semester fee (Semesterbeitrag), and that already includes the Deutschlandticket. Having unlimited regional train and public transit travel across all of Germany built into your student ticket saves you hundreds of euros a month alone. Combining high-quality applied education with almost non-existent study costs makes the ROI here incredible.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Good Indian food is not available; Indian restaurants are here for the Western palate, so you either cook yourself or go to Frankfurt to get proper Indian food. I cook by myself like everyone but eat takeout as well sometimes, mostly Turkish or pizza.

Great College with great enviorment

Tips: Before coming to Fulda, make sure you double-check your course curriculum so you don't regret your major later. Moving abroad is a massive personal shift, and adapting to life in Germany takes time. The weather is probably the biggest shock—winters in Hessen are dark, cold, and can feel pretty gloomy from late autumn through February. If you take care of your mental health, stay active, and build a good group of friends early on, you'll push through it just fine.

Fulda—It may be difficult to adjust at first, but it will get better

Tips: There were certain cultural shifts, but it was not very difficult; it's a place with a lot of international students, so sometimes you will feel like home, but there are some problems if you don't know the German language because it's a small town, not a big city, so not everyone sitting in the supermarket or shops may know English. I didn't have any scholarships; I lived off my part-time job.

Likes (Value for money): Compared to other universities with 400 euro fees, it's really a good university with great teachers and good subjects. In some states the tuition feels really high, which offers the same quality of lectures and courses. So I can clearly say it's value for money.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There are only 3 Indian restaurants here in Fulda and NO Indian supermarkets. You may need to go to Frankfurt for Indian stores. But you can find some Iranian shops, which can make Indians happy; there you can get cheap and spicy things. I usually cook at home, but some days if I want to eat outside, I prefer this doner kebab.

It's good, it's not a big university, so prof and department know us and help us.

Tips: German language: Since it is a small city, and to integrate into society and get a part-time job, it is very hard without the language. But the university itself is good; I am satisfied with the course structure. But one should mentally prepare for exams, presentations, and projects. I applied to deutschlandstipendum, but unfortunately didn't get it.

Likes (Post study jobs): I have been working in my own field for the past 1.5 years, and my studies here helped a lot. Projects I built here mattered a lot to me. There aren't many companies here, but Frankfurt is just 1.5 hr by train, and one can get a lot of opportunities there.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I cook at home, since there are not many grocery stores where you can find ingredients from my home country, such as fruits, vegetables, and spices. In addition, there are no restaurants that serve food from my home country. I have not visited many restaurants, so I go to an Italian pizzeria, and the price is 12 euros for a Margherita pizza.
