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.

Academic and friendly environment.
Tips: I would recommend coming here for those looking for quality education abroad. Academics are taken very seriously and professors are well known as well. It is easy to get intimidated but consistency helps out in the long run and is noticed as well. Food is something I still struggle with otherwise good place.

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.

Hardships for a better future.
Tips: Cultural shift will be there for food and lifestyle but it's not difficult to get used to that. I did not avail any scholarship but people can apply for that and can get up to 300 euros/month. I'm very satisfied with my university, course and the country definitely.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): For the current regulations of the German government its easier to get permanent immigration because now you have to stay at least 5 years for that including your Master's degree so you can work after your degree for 2 years or 3, then you can apply for citizenship here.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Not all companies will do that, also German language is compulsory for that but you can also learn it within 8 months at least up to B2 levels, Analyst or Research Assistant posts are offered with 2000/ month for my course in Biology but if you go into technical lies that's also possible.

Things are not easy, as there is a language barrier but they are not difficult either.
Tips: Be confident and clearly discuss your goals with your supervisor. Build networks and talk with people around you. There are people to take care of you such as the international office. In confusion, do communicate with Indians in the city and they will help you find a solution.
