There are many internships available both academic and industry oriented.

Tips: There is a cultural shift, and knowing German can help. I came without a scholarship and had to bear most of the cost myself, which was also a valuable learning experience. I am quite satisfied with the university, especially taking into account the international friendly city of Munich. Many opportunities for fun outside of work, in sports, dance and music. I cannot speak for the whole of Germany.

Likes (Internships): There are many internships available both academic and industry oriented. As a part of the course, you must also complete 2 internships during the Master's so in some way you are encouraged, and the faculty is encouraged to have student interns. Many academic groups provide internships, which are not paid, while industrial positions often include a stipend. All the above information is regarding field-specific internships.

Dislikes (Student Life): Student life is quite different here. There is a very little community, and most friends are made during the compulsory coursework, in student dorms and shared internships. Events are organised 1-2 times per year by the faculty, and there are frequent student parties that happen at student dorms. There is one main student club in the University for academic organisation, and a few if not none, for other activities. Most students spend time at home and come to campus only for coursework.

Master of Science in Business Education (Business Education I) - Batch of 2027

4.6

LMU is a world class university with great facilities.

Tips: I think it's very important to be flexible. The tuition fee is cheaper but it's a very expensive deal, I feel. So you would have to accept that money can be an issue. There's a great cultural difference also, Munich people are helpful but generally upfront which can be perceived as rude but they are very direct. Scholarship opportunities are there but they are pretty competitive. I am pretty satisfied with the university, the city and the country. I would like to stay here permanently.

Likes (Value for money): I do think tuition feels is justfied as it's not a lot and the return you get is good. LMU is world famous university, you get good faculty members, and job options. You get student benefits at almost every museum and on public transport. You get deutschalnd ticket discount.

Dislikes (Part time work): I feel there are quite a lot of possibilities for part time jobs. Sometimes it can get hectic to manage studies and jobs both but doable. You get at least minimum wage everywhere which is around 12 euros per hour. I am not very sure about the on campus opportunities but off campus there are a lot of opportunities in cafes, in the football stadium.

Master of Science in Economics - Batch of 2025

There are different types of work visas based on the field.

Tips: Coming from India, there is a cultural shift that atleast I experienced, in terms of the environment in universities in India and here. Since there are no tuition fees at LMU for most of the courses, the scholarships are limited. There are organisations that offer scholarships but have requirements such as language proficiency among others. I availed a merit based scholarship after my first year based on my grades wherein I got 650 euros for 5 months for one semester. My course was highly academic and rigorous and comparably at par with other top universities offering Economics at Masters level. The university always had an atmosphere that pushed me in every way to better myself, be it doing better in exams or participating in extra-curricular activities such as exchange programs, seminars and projects. I was more than satisfied with my choice of course, university and country.

Likes (Student Life): There are many groups, clubs and communities that one can join ranging from sports, academics to recreational. Regarding the events that are organised on the campus, there are many faculty organised events, for example, industry oriented projects, career fairs, guest lectures and seminars. There are also other community events such as semester parties, university fests and sports events. There is always something happening.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Although the course is offered in English but for good job prospects, post degree, it’s very important to have German language proficiency at least B1-B2. There are jobs that are in English but very few and highly competitive. In Germany, it is generally not required for companies to offer sponsor visas for work. If you are successful in getting an offer, you could simply apply for a work visa with the job contract. Important to note here is that there are different types of work visas based on the field; bottleneck professions such as STEM and Medical and salary limits, Blue card salary limits. Job roles and salary packages depend solely on the field of study and the previous experience though working in student positions and internships as a student. MSc Economics graduates usually work in finance, taxes, banking and consulting and ofcourse there are PhD opportunities after the Masters.

LMU is a great place for people who are initiative takers.

Tips: The administration here is not that great. Things every student must know aren't really unannounced anywhere. You must proactively get yourself added to WhatsApp and Telegram groups, which certainly exist, no matter your course, and keep track of information there. Life here is slightly convenient. Supermarket closes by 8 pm; commuting to university takes around 30 min; dinner needs to be made at home; ordering food from restaurants is expensive around 15 euros for a meal. It can also be isolating, not just academically. In India, one is used to knowing their classmates and their lecturers. Here, due to the amount of flexibility we have, it is usual for you to only know 3-4 of your classmates throughout your course, depending on which subjects you choose. Taking initiative is what will change your life. Or being good friends with someone else who does. You must also be proactive in discussing tutorials and attending lectures. Also, in making friends. Be proactive and make sure you meet friends every once in a while. Otherwise, it is easy to get too stressed out. Don't take too many courses, keep it to 12 credits for the first semester.

Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are available in Munich. You will get one for sure, if you look around, within 2-3 months or so. However, it is tedious to find them. There is no single unified portal where all such jobs are advertised. Instead, one must be proactive in seeking them: searching different groups, talking to different group leaders. Even if there are no job openings in their groups, they often offer proactive students work. This is a lot of work, but doable.

Highly qualified faculty and a diverse learning environment.

Tips: The transition relied heavily on getting used to the German weather. Munich as a city can get extremely cold in the winter and a lot of bureaucratic as well as home maintenance work requires effort as well as at least a basic understanding of the German language. While the University itself is extremely diverse and while a large fraction of the staff at cafes, restaurants or grocery stores are able to communicate in English using German as a language to approach individuals (outside the University) can become a useful skill.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members that I worked and studied with are not only highly qualified but are also extremely accommodating and approachable with conceptual difficulties as well as bureaucratic needs. If they are unable to help you out, they refer you to the relevant authorities who would definitely help you out.
