A Challenging but Rewarding Academic Journey
Tips: Look, if you’re actually coming to RWTH, you’ve got to be ready to stay on top of your own stuff—it is definitely not the type of place where you can just coast. Trying to cram for exams like two weeks before is basically just a disaster waiting to happen, so you’ve really got to keep at it all semester. If I could give one tip, it’d be to sit down and map out your courses right at the start so you don’t end up totally drowning in work later on. And honestly? Don’t beat yourself up if you can’t finish in exactly two years. Most people take about two and a half once they factor in the internship and the thesis, and companies actually seem to prefer that extra experience anyway. Also—definitely, definitely brush up on your math, especially calculus. It’ll make everything way less of a headache once you’re actually in the thick of it.
Likes (Value for money): Even though there’s a fee for the CAME program, they actually have quite a few scholarships you can look into. Plus, it’s still way cheaper than most other places in Europe, and honestly, the quality you get is worth the price tag. Most other courses in Germany are free anyway, which takes a huge weight off your shoulders financially. One thing I'd suggest is looking for a HiWi spot—it's usually not too hard to find one at the better unis, and it’s a great way to make some extra cash while actually learning the technical side of things. Also, Aachen is much easier on the wallet than other cities. Like, if you were in Munich, you'd probably be spending nearly double on rent and stuff compared to what you’ll pay here.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Honestly trying to land a job in Germany after a Master’s is just brutal lately. The recession has really messed things up especially with the big industries like cars and manufacturing slowing way down. It’s a total nightmare if you aren't fluent in German too as maximum of the decent roles basically won't even look at your CV unless you can speak the language properly.

Highly rewarding journey.
Tips: You should be ready to put in the work to excel at RWTH. Unlike colleges in India, which do not expect special treatment or leniency if you're struggling with exams. Unless you speak up, no one is going to help you. But if you do put in the work, it can be a rewarding experience.

A place where your hard work is paid off.
Tips: There is no tuition fee. Students get high quality education with excellent research facilities, almost free of cost. The university is top notch. One needs to put in effort in studies. It is advised to study regularly. It is advised to learn German during studies to improve one's chances of finding a job in Germany after the studies.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is excellent. The city has a large number of buses running from 5 AM to 1 AM. Their live timings can be tracked using apps such as Naveo and DB Navigator. Public transportation is cheap. With 65 euros Deutschlandticket, one can travel on any bus within the city.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian restaurants are very few in number. They are also quite expensive. Generally students cook their food themselves. Occasionally, I used to eat outside in Indian restaurants. There are many other options available as well - Turkish, Greek, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese etc.

I studied at RWTH Aachen, Germany, and it was an enlightening, humbling and pleasant experience.
Tips: Be respectful to everyone. Learn the language and culture. Have to be ready to put in all the effort required to provide for yourself including part time jobs and money-saving ideas. Do not take exams lightly. Building a rapport with the lecturers and staff is not really necessary but encouraged depending on the subject. Be on the lookout for skill-building part time jobs. Experience specific to jobs is highly valued and preferred. Transferable skills are rarely an advantage.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): There is a chance of a PR after 5-8 years of employment. For people interested in getting it earlier there might be opportunities but I am not sure about it. If not for the Indian law regarding dual citizenship, I could see myself moving to Germany.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are no placement opportunities from the universities. Students obtain every job by applying themselves, attending job fair, and visiting a company website. The university contribution to jobs is the education they provide. I gave it a 3-star rating only to highlight that it is 100% based on the student securing a job for themselves. The student must apply for a job-seeker visa after completing the studies. It is 100% granted, but the student has to provide intent and proof of funds for atleast 3-6 months post study completion.

A challenging and rewarding experience at RWTH in Germany.
Tips: RWTH is academically demanding and requires good time management and self-discipline. Students should also arrange accommodation early. The transition was smooth but I experienced a cultural shift in punctuality, direct communication, and academic independence. It helped me become more organized and self-reliant. I did not receive a scholarship and managed expenses through part-time work. I am satisfied with the university's academic quality, my course structure and the experience of living in Germany.
Likes (Safety): Crime levels in Aachen are generally low and students can feel secure, especially when staying connected with friends and being aware of their surroundings. Additionally, the city police and local authorities are friendly and supportive towards students. Any complaints or concerns are usually addressed promptly, which adds to the overall sense of safety.
Dislikes (Part time work): RWTH is a large university with high student intake, which makes on-campus and off-campus jobs quite competitive and sometimes limited. However the 20-hour-per-week work limit during the semester allows students to balance work and academics effectively. Additionally, the current minimum wage of 13.9 per hour, with some employers paying more, ensures that the students can still earn a reasonable income.
