One of the Top universities with a strong research core.
Tips: Language is the most shocking one; I will definitely need to learn German to be able to thrive here. English will only help you survive! There are multiple scholarships available which we can apply for with few requirements for qualifying for the same. I am really satisfied with the University and the course as it helps me build a strong foundation in the Core subjects and also be able to connect with a strong alumni network, enabling me to explore work opportunities and build a career.
Likes (Public transportation): Really good; we get to use the semester ticket for students, which enables free travel in trains/bus and trams across Germany except for the premium ones! Makes life easier. DB is, however, another story, which isn't so reliable with timing but does get the job done.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): 8/10, there are strong chances that I will settle in Germany, as the work culture and supportive environment help a lot in making life easier. Yes, I would definitely like to work here for a while before I explore options elsewhere. The work culture is really good.

My Review about TU Darmstadt
Tips: People in Germany are quite friendly and welcoming. There are too many indians which does not let you feel a cultural difference. As it is a government university, the fees are nominal. You pay only 350 euros per semester, which also includes the public transportation ticket. I was completely satisfied with my university and the course. The only thing you need to worry about is the language issue. You will probably not survive if you do not know basic German.
Likes (Quality of faculty): This is one of the most recognized universities in Germany. It is a government University. We have all kinds of diverse faculty, and they are easily approachable through email or personal visits. I like the teaching methodology as it includes more practical lessons instead of only theory.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer to eat outside, and there are not many options for Indian restaurants in town. Even when you wish to cook at home, there are not enough green vegetables available. Vegetables are costlier than non-veg. Fresh vegetables are not available, only imported are available.

Research driven education.
Tips: As an international student, the transition to TU Darmstadt was a mix of excitement and adjustment. The biggest shift was adapting to Germany’s independent study culture and its more structured, punctual lifestyle. Although the cultural change felt challenging at first the international community made it smoother. TU Darmstadt also offers university stipends, and the overall cost of studying is low the Aerospace Engineering course costs only around 300-350 per semester, which even includes public transportation. For living expenses, there are both technical and non-technical student jobs that help cover monthly costs. Academically, the university and the country are above average, with strong academic standards, solid support, and a well-structured aerospace program that is practical, research-oriented, and rich in opportunities in areas like aerodynamics and flight systems.

Life is a rollercoaster ride: Ups and Downs
Tips: For students coming from India, one thing I want to say is that studies can be a lot of energy draining here. You need to put in daily hard work; it isn't like India, where teachers spoon-feed us. We need to do a lot of self-study here and need to read books as well, but if you manage to do that, then it is a really great university and has a lot to offer. No, I didn't apply for any kind of scholarship, and I'm not aware of one either. I am extremely satisfied with my university and the course as well. And about Germany, it's always thrilling, like every day is a new challenge, but it is fun to tackle those; it makes you more mature, and I guess it's exciting to have some challenges in life, or else life feels boring.
Likes (Value for money): Umm, since my university is a public university, there is no tuition fee for me. But yes, there is a semester contribution that all the students are supposed to pay, but it's around 400 euros; I guess it is totally worth the money because the facilities they provide are simply awesome, and it's like they give you access to 3 world-class libraries across the city. They have 2 Mensa (university canteens) where they have different menus on each day and provide the students of TU Darmstadt special discounted food. The faculty over here is superb, and they are relatively easy to approach regarding any kind of doubts, and they have a lot of part-time job opportunities as well.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Umm, there are a few good Indian restaurants around in my locality, and prices are also okay, but it's about the authenticity of the taste, like Germans prefer less spice, so they are not up to the spice level even though you specifically ask for it. Hence, I prefer cooking by myself and eating at home rather than going out for meals, and it's like a personal decision, not like there aren't any good restaurants available. There are a lot of good restaurants out there. I guess döner is one of the most popular dishes among the youngsters out here in Darmstadt, Germany.

Great support and opportunities.
Tips: Students should know that they will have a great time if they are willing to put in the effort. Be open minded and be open to learning new things. The sooner you merge to the German education system the easier it will be. Otherwise it's smooth sailing.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): There are a lot of opportunities to learn, meet people, engage and enjoy in various parts of the German and international community. There are various student clubs/ projects. Moreover, the university is also quite supportive if you are interested in working on a student project.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Professors are super helpful and easy to reach out to. They sometimes go out of their way to help students. There's a lot of support especially for international students. All lectures are super engaging and insightful. The way the courses are designed is creative.

Academics, especially courses with lab work and academic projects, demand time.
Tips: Cultural shocks and imposter syndrome are part of the process but the more you force yourself into the new and comfortable setting, the more it'll start getting easier. A few cultural socks include the fact that the bureaucracy is crazy and everything, from doctors' appointments to other official appointments, requires meticulous planning beforehand. Being on time is considered late, and I'm still working on that. All shops and supermarkets remain closed on Sunday, so you've got to plan your week around it. It can get really quiet and really gloomy if you don't have people to reach out to, so have a tribe. Deutschland Stipendium is one of the best scholarships available, but it is also super competitive.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The decision about a permanent settlement can change over the years and many factors can affect it. It's only been close to six months in this country and it demands top tier awareness and hard work for an immigrant to peacefully stay here. The first step towards permanent settlement is knowing the language at least up to B2. No integration is possible without this. The job market is pretty bad but I believe it can be smartly navigated with some patience.
Dislikes (Part time work): Academics especially a course with lab work and academic projects, demand time, so it totally depends on how efficiently one manages their schedule and how much one decides to spend on their part-time, self-study, and also leisure. HiWi jobs are quite competitive but not impossible to get from the second semester onwards. Off-campus opportunities increase considerably if you have an A2/B1 level of the German language. Just keep in mind the maximum number of hours you can work and earn as a student. Not obeying it will have legal consequences. Doing mini-jobs is also a good alternative.
