Bachelor of Science in Management and Technology at the Munich Campus - Batch of 2026
4.2
Studying at the best German university.
Tips: There is a great scope of learning not just in education but also in other areas of life. One learn to live independently and that I believe is the most important characteristic one needs to develop. Moreover it will give you a complete experience of living abroad.
Likes (Student Life): A student can get the maximum exposure to what it means to live alone and as an independent individual. Students will have the best opportunity to explore themselves. There are my things cheaper for students specifically in here too. Thus to gain a great adult life experience, it's the right place.
Dislikes (Safety): The city is very safe for any individual living here. A person can walk the whole night outside and still won't face any problems like theft or any criminal issues. The city is also very safe for women. Since many female students from India also come here and they are able to enjoy their life completely. Good and friendly city.

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.

3.3
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.
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.

An amazing learning experience.
Tips: There are no on-campus placement opportunities. There are student fairs where various companies come and advertise their job openings, but the onus of securing a job lies solely on the student. Knowing German can definitely help you gain some advantage over non German speaking applicants. The program is rigorous, and you will need to study on your own and not expect to be spoon-fed by teachers. The quality of education is great, one of the best you can get. There were no tuition fees for my course. Knowing the German language wasn't required for my course but it definitely helps in the social atmosphere. Munich is slightly more expensive compared to the rest of Germany when it comes to rent and accommodation but the cost of living here is still reasonable.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is very well managed in Europe. The monthly student pass at 40 euros gives access to public transit throughout germany and so it is very helpful. I did not feel the need for owning a car at any point during my stay; the city is very bike friendly too.

Student life is fun yet stressful.
Tips: There were a lot of shifts in terms of how the classes are organised for example there were no mandatory classes to attend. I had the DAAD scholarship which was paid as a stipend every month of 500 euros for 9 months. Although some of the student life were stressful, I was completely prepared for what was to come next in terms of professional life.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is very well connected with the underground metro and fast suburban trains. Trams and buses are also very easily accessible. With a student pass, you can travel on all of them for free of any additional charges. The student pass was around 1.50 euros per semester which was very affordable too.
Dislikes (Student Life): Student life in Germany could be stressful with high deadline pressure and a difficult jump to academics from Indian standards. Events on campus would range from a career fair to social events. I had joined various social events as both participants as well as organize. Clubs range from entrepreneur clubs to photography clubs. The biggest stress of student life was the cost of living crisis in Munich as a city.
