TUM is awesome, but can be expensive for international students now.

Tips: When I started back in 2022, I got super lucky because TUM didn't charge international students tuition fees, but that’s completely changed now. Honestly, if you're on a tight budget, you should absolutely spam your applications to all the other public universities in Germany. They’re all respected and the quality of education is solid across the board—especially compared to the private colleges, which just aren't worth the money.

Fulfilling University Experience with Personal Growth

Tips: I have transitioned a lot. I have experienced a huge cultural shift. I have become more disciplined and independent. No, I had no scholarships. I applied on my own through the portals (no agent involved). I am fully satisfied with the educational prospect of my university. It provided me with a lot of internships and practical courses. Germany can make you feel lonely, but then you learn a lot about yourself. Overall, I am happy with whatever this country has offered.

Likes (Indian Food): Now we have 100s of options for Indian food! There is no scarcity of Indian restaurants or Indian grocery stores. In the locality, the food prices range from 15 to 20 euro/meal for one person. Depending on your location you can find all different cuisines but Asian and Turkish are the prominent ones. I prefer eating inside and I like to cook my own food.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Since the job market is currently going through a rough phase (due to the geopolitical situation), securing a full-time job is not an easy task. We do have more than 500 companies offering sponsor visas for work. Research associate—45000-50k/year (gross); technician/lab assistant—38k-42k (gross) per year.

Part-time jobs at TUM/Munich are available but very competitive.

Tips: Students should know TUM is academically demanding and Munich is one of the most expensive cities to live in, so plan their studies and finance well. Transition is quite smooth as German culture is more independent and punctual. I was admitted in the W-2023 intake which led to tuition feels being < 100/semester. Overall, I'm more than satisfied with TUM, my course and Germany.

Likes (Public transportation): TUM is well connected by U-Bahn, S-Bahn, Tram and Bus. Travel is convenient across Munich and Germany. Students get a discounted Deutschlandticket, around 43/month in 2026, making transport affordable. Kudos to Deutsche Bahn or rather Delay Bahn.

Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs at TUM/Munich are available but very competitive. On-campus HiWi roles are limited, require German and off-campus roles are cumbersome. TUM academics are heavily demanding, so work is hard to manage. The average pay is 15/hr.

German knowledge is a must.

Tips: The subjects are very flexible and we have the opportunity to tailor make our own curriculum including choosing which subjects and how many subjects we can pick in each semester. Labs, internships and seminar sessions can also be chosen in different schools based on interest

Likes (Public transportation): There are student discounts for all of the tickets we buy for travel. I needed around 200-300 euros per 6 months for buying the ticket for travel in Munich. There is also a day trip ticket, a weekly ticket and hour based tickets, Bayern ticket etc for facilitating travel.

Dislikes (Part time work): German knowledge is a must. It becomes difficult to secure a spot in most part time jobs without that. The part time position can be done up to 20 hours per week and the pay depends on whether it is technical or non technical. Takes a few months to secure a job.

TUM is academically highly demanding.

Tips: TUM is a highly demanding academically and the students who want to join needs to keep that in mind. With the new fees it is also competitive and expects students to be proactive. There are many research projects, collaborations, job fairs and events but you must actively seek them out. You also need to improve your networking as you will surely meet international students and they will be your support systems until your collage life. The TUM degree will surely offer excellent resources and career prospects but depends largely your initiative and willingness to learn the language as well as stepping outside your comfort zone

Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is one of the best way to travel to and from the university. As the university is in the middle of the city, there are lot of option for travelling. It is also inexpensive as there is a Germany wide ticket that can be brought at student prices.

Dislikes (Internships): In Germany, universities generally do not provide structured guidance or support for internships, as there are not a mandatory requirement. However, students who are interested in pursuing one must find opportunities independently. For these positions, there are numerous job fairs and similar events that help students connect with potential employers.

Answered 6 days ago

A 3 year Diploma in CSE just after 10th is a great path for lateral entry into B.Tech or BCA.
