I recommend Karlsruhe Institute of Technology

Tips: There used to be a minimal tuition fee at KIT when I was enrolled. Since then, a considerably higher tuition fee has been introduced. There are cultural differences, but it is also easy to find friends in the Indian community. I’m very satisfied with the quality of education at KIT.

Likes (Public transportation): The campus of the university is located in the heart of Karlsruhe. It is almost within walking distance of the center of Karlsruhe. Otherwise, it is also very well connected by trams and metros. Students at the university get free access to public transport with the semester ticket.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Having a degree from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology opens doors to several job opportunities. Roles in engineering, consultancy, or IT are common. I would guess the average annual salary for a fresh graduate is around 50k euros. I just think that the current job market in Germany is facing some challenges.

hard & stressful research and academia but worth it

Tips: It's stressful, at least for Bachelor's. If you cannot handle a hard course, don't come cultural its a normal German university. You won't know anyone. You just study and leave there are scholarships, but super hard to get, like the Deutschlandstipendium. I would say, on the basis of the university, course, and country, it's a 7.5/10.

Likes (Post study jobs): Alot of people don't know but Karlsruhe is a industrial giants of germany, it is in southern germany which is known for manufacturing and it has 100s of headquarters of companies and industries and due to initial barrier of 1500 euros per semester tuition feels by the state, the competition is drastically lower than those studying in states with little to no semester feels also KIT is a only hyperscale research university and a technical university combined in whole of germany, generally in germany research and teaching are done by different institutions but here its KIT does everything so there is alot of opportunities in being research assistant to professors and thesis people.

Dislikes (Student Life): It has a massive class size, generally, you just enter the hall, study, and leave. You will most likely not know more than 3 people in the entire study, and the city itself is really small, so there's not much happening. The max you have here is the semester opening parties, and that's it.

Good experience with cutting edge research facilities

Tips: I was there for my exchange programme to do my thesis, so I didn't take any courses, but I had friends who were doing a Bachelor's. With the current situation, it's not very easy to find internships, and it can get stressful if you have taken out a loan. I was getting a DAAD scholarship of around 1000 euros per month, so that is enough, but it depends on your lifestyle and the apartment rent, which can be high. It's a very good city to live in. The tuition fee for international students is high for a Master's, but I was on exchange, so I didn't have to pay any.

One of the best colleges that Germany can offer, especially research oriented.

Tips: Definitely the language barrier; it is really difficult without knowledge of German. The exam period is super stressful, so starting your preparation right from the classes start is quite important. If I'm not wrong, only the Deutschland Merit Scholarship is available, but it's quite competitive to get. I set up a blocked account for the first year, but you will be able to get student assistant jobs (HiWi), which will be sufficient to manage your expenses.

Likes (Safety): The city is super student-friendly and pretty safe, the student dorms are pretty safe too, overall. Recently, I came across an issue of robbery in one of the student dorms, but that's super, super rare. I have been living here for over a year now, and compared to other cities in Germany, Karlsruhe is one of the safest.

Dislikes (Internships): Finding internships is pretty hard, especially if you are not comfortable with German. Nothing is spoon-fed, so you will have to put in all the effort to find one, guidance such as cover letter and CV prep is provided, though. There are plenty of internships available, but most of them require German or prefer students who must do an internship.

A World-Class Engineering Powerhouse with Intense and Rewarding Academics.

Tips: One should know about the course before joining the university and taking the appropriate courses. One should have a sense of respect towards one's peers. One can try to learn the German language. While writing the test, one should use the key terms.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members are really approachable. World-class professors at KIT offer incredible accessibility through open-door office hours and fast forum replies. Their unique, research-driven methodology blends theory with global industry projects, delivered by a highly diverse, international faculty.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Authentic food from home is rare and altered in Karlsruhe, earning a 2. Local student pubs like Oxford and wok spots cost u20ac10u2013u20ac20, while sit-down places hit u20ac20u2013u20ac30. I prefer cooking to save money and control my diet. You can find the ingredients in Asian stores, but don't expect Indian prices.
