Technically driven competitive college.
Tips: Students should know that RPTU requires strong academic dedication, so maintaining good grades and staying consistent with coursework is important. The APS certificate is essential for many applications in India. So preparing this early helps. Life here also requires being independent.
Likes (Student Life): Student life at RPTU is very well balanced and enjoyable if you make it. There is a good mix of academics research opportunities and personal time which makes managing studies much easier. I enjoy spending my day in the labs and libraries or attending classes and there are many sports facilities and cultural activities and events that keep the campus lively. RPTU also hosts job fairs and career events welcome weeks tournaments and international meetups.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer home cooked meals because most food available here doesn't fully match the Indian taste. There are a few restaurants that has international cuisine but authentic Indian flavours are little and often adapted to European preferences. This makes it harder to find meals that feel familiar so I cook at home. Also as a student we are on a tight budget.

Great university, big campus and nice courses.
Tips: TU Kaiserslautern is a very good university, especially for computer courses. The University campus is awesome, big, and well-structured. The Mensa or canteen is also very nice. There are 2 scholarship options at the university, the Deutschland Stipendium and DAAD Stibet. You must be in the top 5 students in your course in the 1st semester to be considered for the scholarships.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The University is very popular in the region, and offers good exposure to several companies for full time job opportunities. As an engineer basic salary starts at around 40-50k Euros per annum. Work visas are generally not sponsored in Germany, they can easily be taken from work council.
