Entrepreneurial university with great facilities.
Tips: The university is very good in terms of ranking and recognition. The course contents are updated and correspond to current real-world examples. Some courses are at a different campus, which might require proper time management. Also, various classes can happen at the same time. Internships are slightly difficult in the current market. Moreover, knowing German would be a significant advantage. There's no specific guidance from the university, we have to try for it on our own. If some professors found something within their circle, they would post it. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): Munich has three campuses, and they are on the edge of the city. Transportation service in Munich is well-connected during peak hours. However, some areas on the outskirts have less frequent transportation after 9 p.m. Still, most of the locations within city limits are well-connected.

Amiable university with fun and good curriculum.
Tips: Before enrolling, just get a sense of the campus and the college. The college is fun and filled with activities for the student. All the courses are electives, so the students have the freedom to select what they are interested in. They teach the course in English. You need not worry about it. Moreover, the faculty here is extremely approachable and understanding. If you have any doubts or queries, you can easily reach out to them. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Education system is way more application and industrial oriented.
Tips: Getting to know lots of people from India and other countries makes me feel connected. There isn't a big culture shift, as the people are friendly and you can greet strangers. However, knowing the language will help, especially for buying groceries and completing daily chores. The university offers a lot of really good internships that range from 5 to 15 credit hours. But they tend to get snapped up fast, so you need to keep your eye out and apply the moment you see an opening. The faculty are approachable and easy to communicate with, which is really nice when you need help getting ready for an interview. I also really like the faculty, and I appreciate how friendly and approachable they are. I find them easy to contact and get advice from. Overall, I am very satisfied with the course curriculum and the sustainable environment.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time work is not easy to get, especially for students who don't know German. It's around 5 hours of work for 3 days per week, which is hard to manage with studies. But in Germany, classes happen only 2-3 days. In such cases, scheduling the work properly helps. Basic payout is 12.5 euros per hr depending on the job. If you know German, then the job will be quite easy to do.

Multicultural and immersive experience.
Tips: It's a different culture, of course, so one should be prepared for the change. In my case, I know B2 German by this point, and my partner is German as well, so I've had the opportunity to get immersed in the culture here. I'd say it's important to at least make friends from different places and not to stay in your comfort zone. I have the Deutschlandstipendium, which gives me 300 euros per month and has made life easier for me. In addition, I also got a student job at university as a research assistant and have been doing research internships at university as well. There is some latent racism towards foreigners amidst the local population, but don't pay too much attention to it. Just do what you gotta do and let them be. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my life here in terms of academic and personal aspects.

The Deutschland ticket lets you travel anywhere easily, and the trains are normally on time.
Tips: For me personally, the transition from India to Germany was relatively easy, as I already had friends from India who helped me integrate. For the first timers, it might not be that simple, but once you find friends and get out of your comfort zone, it becomes worth it. Germany's mode of transportation is really well done. Especially for TUM, it's exceptionally good. The Deutschland ticket lets you travel anywhere easily, and the trains are normally on time. After the student discount is applied, the ticket price is around 38 euros, or 3,500. It's worth the price. The German food is bland and not that good compared to Indian food. Also, Indian restaurants are a bit on the expensive side, and it really takes getting to know them to cook. So, it's always good to come prepared, otherwise, it will just be the same old, mundane routine every day. I didn’t apply for any scholarships and I’m really satisfied with the course and the country.

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.
