Good Education, Tough Job Market.
Tips: The transition was difficult at first. Adapting to an independent lifestyle, a new academic system, and a language took time. Finding accommodation was the biggest challenge, but I was glad to get a dorm later. I did not avail of any scholarship. I'm quite satisfied with my university, course, and country. TUM offers good academic exposure, and Germany provides good opportunities if you have strong German language skills and relevant experience. The job market is currently challenging, though.
Likes (Value for money): Value for money still gets a full 5/5 from me, even with Munich’s notoriously high rent and TUM’s non-EU tuition fees. You're paying more than at other German universities, but the return on investment is massive. The network here is unreal—direct links to giants like BMW, Siemens, and tech startups mean you get top-tier working student (Werkstudent) roles while studying. Combined with world-class campus facilities and instant global brand recognition on your resume, every euro spent feels justified.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Getting a job (including Werkstudent) mostly depends on your German language skills; B2 is the minimum for my field. University reputation does not guarantee a job. There is also no direct campus placement system like in India, so students need to apply independent. Having relevant work experience can help a bit.

Learn the language for a career
Tips: The main difference is knowing the language. If you learn and come here, everything becomes easy. If not, it is very difficult to get jobs and network. I don't know much about the scholarships. I am satisfied with everything, but the job market is very hard.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Very approachable, a little late in replying. Mostly theoretical teaching. Very diverse and qualified. It is very difficult to pass the exams if we leave everything to the last minute. It's very hard to find a thesis professor if it's not planned well. The 1st year is pretty standard. In the 3rd semester you can choose your seminars, and the 4th semester is thesis work. You can extend another 2 semesters.
Dislikes (Part time work): There aren't many on-campus jobs. Off-campus jobs are hard to get due to language. If we have a part-time job, it is easy to manage because it's only 20 hours. The minimum payout is 13.90. Average 15 euros. The main difference is learning the language. It will take around an average of 1 year to get a working student.

TUM: looks fancy on paper, but can get stressful really fast.
Tips: This is not an easy place to be. I would really advise thinking twice about joining TUM. Academics are genuinely pretty hard. I wouldn’t say that I’m satisfied with my decision; however, if I do complete it, the rewards are still substantial. However, if I knew what I know now while making my decision, I probably would’ve headed somewhere else.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is pretty good all across Europe. Trains connect all parts pretty well. Accessibility-wise, I’d give it a full score; however, reaching places does take time, and the German transportation system has historically always been subject to delays.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I’m from India, and I must say that Indian food options are pretty mediocre at best in Munich. There are many Indians running these restaurants; however, taste gets lost in translation, and you end up with bland, unseasoned, and sometimes even incorrect versions of the food. For example, I got some naan from a highly reviewed restaurant, and it was about a centimeter thick and raw.

TUM: Beer, sweat and tears :)
Tips: Extremely satisfied with the university. Getting into TUM is easy, but graduation is hard. You get a maximum duration of 8 semesters where you have to complete 180 ECTS; otherwise you're exmatriculated and barred from pursuing that study program anywhere else in the country.
Likes (Indian Food): Amazing Indian restaurants available. Many Indian stores also sell Indian snacks. I prefer eating outside or cooking for myself here and there. I love the food and beer scene in Munich in general. Also a big enough Indian diaspora to go out together to eat some local butter chicken :).
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The German job market, and the overall European market in general, are experiencing a downturn. Would recommend new students find working student jobs and try to get a permanent position after graduation. Many teach roles available at legacy companies, and many automobile giants have their headquarters in Munich.

TU Munich Bachelor Informatik review
Tips: If you're joining TUM for Informatik (Computer Science), the biggest piece of advice is to tackle housing months before your semester starts. Munich’s rental market is brutal, private student dorms fill up fast, and the Studierendenwerk dorm waitlist can take several semesters. Start hunting on WG-Gesucht as soon as you get your admission offer. On the academic side, TUM’s Informatik curriculum is world-class, but it’s exceptionally rigorous. You'll be spending most of your time out at the Garching campus, and passing initial orientation exams (GOP) requires serious effort from day one. To help with Munich's high cost of living, definitely apply for the Deutschlandstipendium—it’s 300€ a month and provides a huge financial cushion if you land it. Overall, the degree is intense, but the reputation and career doors it opens are well worth it.

My experience at Technical University of Munich - inside and outside the campus.
Tips: Munich is an expensive city, plus the introduction of very high tuition fees for non-EU students is really difficult to manage. Always look for alternative universities with similar courses and scholarships as well. TUM is also a bit hectic with the classes.
Likes (Public transportation): We have many different types of public transport, and they are very reliable. In case some line is not working, replacement buses are provided. The frequency of metros, suburban trains, buses, and trams is also very good. There are night buses and trams also available. You don't need to walk more than 10 minutes for the nearest public transport.
Dislikes (Value for money): Because it's really expensive and most part-time jobs require German. Also, 6000 euros a semester (1000 a month) plus 1000 euros on living expenses is really a big financial burden. Sometimes it feels like going and settling in a smaller city would have been a better option.
