Master of Science in Environmental Engineering - Batch of 2025

Student union will help you with any problem you are facing.
Tips: Transition was not that difficult for me as I had good flatmates and friends. I did not get any financial scholarships, but I ended up getting the TUMJA research scholarship, which is pretty amazing. TUM is known to be one of the best universities in Germany, so that says it all, I guess. You are good to go if you have the required skill set and a good hold on the German language. Here in Germany, you are mostly on your own, so I recommend having a good LinkedIn account and increasing your connections, which later will help you find jobs.
Likes (Student Life): Student life at TUM is good. You can volunteer/participate in events that help you connect with people from industries in your field. The student union will help you with any problem you are facing. There are tutors and student coordinators to guide you in your academic studies.

Master of Science in Informatics - Batch of 2024
4.2
A memorable experience - TUM and Munich.
Tips: The weather is going to be harsh except for summer. Make the best use of your Schengzen Visa. Cooking is a very important and underrated skill. The number of hours you have to put in depends a lot on the courses you take. Much better flexibility in terms of choice of courses. As an IITian with a CSE degree, I can vouch for that. Learn German to make life easier. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members with whom I integrated were really passionate about teaching. Unlike in India, there isn't a strong hierarchy and faculty members wouldn't want to give you a BT usually. The teaching faculty was fairly diverse, and it mostly comprised European teachers. Recorded lectures, assignments, and solutions were properly maintained and were available for a lot of courses. I skipped going to university whenever it was too cold to travel.
Dislikes (Value for money): Recently, there has been a semester fee hike. However, it is a great ROI if you want to work in Europe. Informatics is great in TUM, with a very large strength and good courses and resources. I would say that proper campus placements do not happen like in Indian IITs, so you must go around job hunting.

A diverse and empowering student life with pragmatic challenges.
Tips: Not much difference has happened to me. I learned a new language. I have not availed of any scholarships. But there are scholarships to which I have applied and my friends received them. The allowance is around 300 Euros/month. I am fully satisfied and happy.
Likes (Student Life): College days are truly refreshing as they offer the chance to meet new people from diverse cultures which I find exciting. I actively participate in events like IKOM, Sustainability Day and events like IFAT. There are also clubs for language learning, planting sees, excursions and many more.
Dislikes (Indian Food): As a student from south India in Munich, I struggle to find authentic Indian food as local Indian restaurants are expensive and lack authenticity. I prefer cooking but due to lack of time, affordable options like McDonald's or ready-made packets are helpful.

Master of Science in Power Engineering (MSPE) - Batch of 2025
4.9
A path to excellence and success.
Tips: You can expect an academic shift. The quality of education is very good. TUM has now started imposing fees to the non-EU students but you can expect scholarships based on your profile. The university also provides a helpline number and organizes social groups that can assist students. Students struggling with stress can attend regular sessions to ease their stress. I had a wonderful experience at the university. Munich is a beautiful city that has many festivals and fairs worth attending, like the Oktoberfest and the Garnix. I'm totally satisfied. It was my dream to study here. It feels really good to be here at TUM.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): In Germany, if you study at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), you can receive a blue card when you secure a full-time job offer. Your career prospects will be excellent, depending on your profile. In addition, blue card salaries are generally high. If you complete the MSPE program, you can become a simulation engineer or a battery engineer. However, it all depends on how you tailor your CV.

Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Management - Batch of 2025
4.1
Great university, great city and friendly people.
Tips: I did not avail any scholarship. Students can however apply for the Deutschland stipend. Studying in Germany often mean you need to overcome the language barrier. If you want to settled here and not struggle so much in getting a full time job then apart from skills, atleast B1 or B2 level German is needed. I am very much satisfied with the university and the course, it was very flexible and academic pressure is not too intense.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is well connected with U-Bahns and buses from all over the city. The frequency of the U-bahns and buses is excellent, especially during the peak hours. Students studying at TUM can avail the 39 euro discounted Deutschland ticket, which gives them unlimited access to the public transportation all over Germany except high-speed ICE trains.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are no campus placements like we have in India. Students are required to apply through LinkedIn. Entry-level jobs can be taken up in any field, be it marketing, consulting, product management, finance, etc. Students should have relevant experiences, which they can gain during their studies through working student jobs and internships. They can even apply for graduate trainee programs. The salary packages are generally above the blue card threshold level, and the average can be about 60,000 euros per annum. Given the current market scenario, finding a full time job can be challenging.

The university provides with the opportunities to grow and explore in your course of studies.
Tips: Before joining this college students should know that there will be cultural shifts but one should be able to manage. There was no tuition fee until the summer 2024 intake but starting the winter 2024 intake they have started charging tuition fees however, there are exceptions available which you can check by visiting the university's website. The University, course and country are nice but knowing German is key and could very well be the difference between liking it or not. A popular scholarship is available which is called Deutschlandstipendium for 300/month. Check out the DAAD website for more details.
Likes (Safety): Munich is regarded as one of the safest cities in Europe. Although it's a given you need to be careful with your belongings so far I haven't had any instances that I would consider threatening. As a student, you will also get a travel ticket that allows travel throughout Germany by public transport.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food is not very common in Mensa (which is the alternative to a Canteen) however, there are a lot of Indian restaurants throughout the city. A visit can cost anywhere between 15-50. I generally prefer cooking myself as being from Assam, India I generally prefer less spicy food. Also cooking by yourself helps keep monthly expenses low.
