OVGU is a research-oriented college.
Tips: OVGU is a research-oriented college. Professors will assume that master's students have a basic understanding of the topic, as if they studied it in their bachelor's degree. Therefore, you need to do a lot of self-study, assignments, and research work. Besides that, student life is fun and vibrant. We have different activities for different events.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport across Germany is really nice. As students, we get a Deutschland semester ticket, which includes free transportation within the city. For travelling outside the city, we can use the Regional Bahn and Regional Express for free. This helps students travel easily.
Dislikes (Part time work): Currently, the part-time situation in Magdeburg is not that great, and students are finding it difficult to get a part-time job. A major challenge that a student is facing here is the language barrier, and most companies are not hiring students as they need full-time people and not part-time.

Otto Von Guericke Universität is a technical university and more research-focused.
Tips: OVGU is a technical university, which means the studies here are designed to be more research-focused. If you are looking to do a Ph.D., then the university curriculum is pretty good, but if you just want a Master's degree and then want a professional career, go for a Hochschule instead.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The university faculty as a whole is quite good, the professors and the staff are really helpful and approachable, also they emphasise more on hands-on training rather than taking a theoretical approach. OVGU maintains a low student-to-teacher ratio, which helps in easy and direct interactions.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a few Indian restaurants, but even those are catered more towards the German taste palette, so being Indian, you might not like the taste as much. Also, if you're a vegetarian, your outside food choices are limited, and most of the time, you'll have to cook your own meals.

Assessing permanent settlement prospects in Magdeburg, Germany.
Tips: Magdeburg has a lot of Indians, including where I go to university. I personally didn't feel any culture shock, and it was really nice. I didn't get a scholarship, but I got into a public university, so I don't have to pay for my education. And I'm very satisfied with the university, Magdeburg and the country.
Likes (Public transportation): Magdeburg is very close to Berlin. Public transportation is also great here. Even late at night, we can find night trams and buses also few trains. It is very affordable, and we even get a semester ticket to travel. Overall, public transportation is the best.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Germany is a great place to settle. A country with one of the best work-life balances. If you are good with German language skills, then this is the best country to settle and work in. If I get a chance, I will definitely settle here. This place is also very calm and nature-friendly.

Life at OVGU thriving as an Indian student.
Tips: There are a lot of Indian students at Otto-von-Guericke, and there is a big Indian student community, so don't expect to find many Germans on campus. We celebrate Diwali and other festivals. It can be great to have lots of Indian students and not so great for some people, so it really depends on the person.
Likes (Value for money): There are no tuition fees. There is only a semester fee, and that too is really low as compared to other Indian universities, and these fees include my transportation, my library access, and all student-related activities for free. It is really justifiable.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent immigration depends on the future and the future job market. Plus, it depends on how the government will allow this, since the new government is forming, and there are some parties that are really against immigrants. It really depends, but if I got the chance, sure.

Great academics and highly engaging student life.
Tips: Be mentally and physically prepared to tackle all challenges at the same time. While studying, you will need to earn money to survive, so be prepared and don't stress about it. In the end, it will all work out perfectly. You can also apply for scholarships, and if you get a good grade, then you will get 800 euros every month, roughly.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very welcoming and supportive. Classes are enjoyable and engaging. Assignments and project work are fun to do. Public transportation is highly affordable and accessible. Try to explore the city and the culture as much as you can.

The university is academically good and the faculty are experts in their field.
Tips: Be aware that there will be several cultural changes here that you'll have to adapt to. In hotels, everyone pays for their own dinner. Scholarships do exist, but you need to show you’re an excellent student and volunteer a bit for a chance at receiving one. There are many stores where you can find your traditional food or any food stuff, and in case you need anything specific, they can also order it for you. Restaurants are also good options to get traditional food instead of cooking it yourself, which takes a lot of time and effort. Post-study jobs, especially in the field, are very difficult because you need to get past the language barrier. Then you have to be very motivated, as it will take around 3-4 months to find a full-time job in the field. Finally, you should be ready to move to another city if you accept one of these job offers.
