Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Biomass Technology (In German) - Batch of 2026
4.6
A hub of research, diversity and excellence.
Tips: I'm grateful to be studying in one of the best universities in the world. TUM offers world class education and professors are highly qualified and knowledgeable. You can also apply for scholarships if you're planning to study here. I myself didn't avail any for TUM but I got an Erasmus scholarship for my semester abroad exchange in Austria. I'm content with whatever course I'm studying. I've grown personally and academically after coming here. The only thing is that searching for a part time job is hard if you don't know German. It has been a good experience so far for me.

Good opportunities and friendly campus.
Tips: Be ready to invest in learning beyond the syllabus. Required knowledge for an exam or presentation is not limited to the lecture presentations, but self study as well. Look for scholarships in advance to avail them. Finding the right balance between academics, job and social life could be a bit confusing in the beginning but prioritising is the key. Mental health care is a must. Having a good group of friends and classmates would play a way important role in shaping you're life abroad away from home.
Likes (Safety): Having been on that campus, there has never been a moment of unsafe feeling. There are quick helplines in case of any kind of emergency. There was a case where I forgot my mobile phone on the train, but thankfully, the person who found the phone informed us and arranged for a place to collect it from.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time jobs on campus would depend on your profile from previous degrees and experiences and language flexibility. There are boards for 'Job postings' in the canteen, which would have part time, internship and even PhD postings. There are also databases for internships guiding us through the departments, universities and institutes that we could explore, not only nationally but also internationally. To have a good balance between academics and part -time jobs/internships, on campus opportunities are definitely easier, especially for the initial 1 or 2 semesters, where academics could be a bit intense. Average pay for these jobs would vary, from 13.5 to 15 euros or more depending on the type of job, whether in-campus or outside. For off-campus part time jobs are available and making use of all resources as possible, online sites, job fairs, or even posters in stores that would need a part-time employee.

4.5
An inclusive and engaging learning environment.
Tips: The transition was not easy initially but I adapted myself really well within the next few months. Right from the change of food, weather, to even teaching methodology and the way they asked questions in the exam. I did not pay any tuition fees except the student union fees, which were around 75 euros.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are very accessible and friendly. We are encouraged to share our inputs freely. Regarding the teaching methodology that I find the most unique is the way the faculty involves everyone in the discussion. In terms of nationality, it is very diverse.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Being a vegetarian I was a little sceptical but there are lots of restaurants, cafes and bakeries around the university. I prefer cooking myself. But at the same time, you get to taste the best pretzels, Berliners and croissants. It's a blend of unique and traditional cooking that one gets to see in Germany.

It’s one of the best university to study in Germany. Also it’s Industry and research oriented.
Tips: Students should first have clarity about choosing their field of study and register for required courses at the earliest so as to get a fixed place, and one of the major things they should do is look for accommodation well in advance. Better to learn a basic level of German or to register for a language course very well in advance, as it's very competitive to get a fixed place.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is on point, we can concentrate on academics and we have a student union which facilitates us to participate in extra-curricular activities as well. So you can enjoy your student life completely and have some opportunity to be part of student perks as tickets for movies, travel everything will be on concession.
Dislikes (Safety): Professors come down themselves to take the classes which is super beneficial as some of them are like veterans in their field of study and one best thing is we have a platform called Moodle where lecturer uploads everything before the class. Some of the courses also have practical experience, so it's one of the good things.

Build connections, set boundaries, and maintain a balance in your work.
Tips: Be friendly and communicate well. Build connections, set boundaries and maintain a balance in your work. Recognise your accomplishments and work honestly, without trying to please everyone.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is well connected from student dorms and the university on weekdays from 7 am to 10 pm in Freising. The Munich campus has better connectivity. In Freising the main modes of transport are buses while in Munich it's Regional trains or S Bahn. Munich also has good U Bahn and tram connectivity. Public transport is affordable, but it often experiences delays.
Dislikes (Part time work): The number of campus jobs is limited, making it somewhat challenging, especially initially. However, it improves over time as you learn the best approach. Besides off campus jobs, such as odd jobs, most require German language skills; if you have an A2 level, many opportunities exist. The average pay for part time work is around 15 to 16 euros/hour for on campus positions and 12.50 to 15 euros/hour for odd jobs.
