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.

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.

Great academic environment with strong research opportunities in Germany.
Tips: Before coming here students should know academic structure is quite independent and research oriented. Students are expected to manage their time well for studies but you will also get plenty to tike to explore life do activities so it's not just about studies. Look for scholarships as it makes your study logically free.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Professors in my department are highly knowledgeable, we have access to state of the art technology and equipment. Their expertise and commitment significantly improve the learning experience. They also use creative ways to teach and exams that make learning easier and fun. Teaching is research oriented. I gained a lot of hands on experience that is actually required.

The university has a focus on academic research and has strict scientific standards.
Tips: The university has a focus on academic research and has strict scientific standards. The Bachelor's degree programmes require a B2-C1 level of German language to understand the course material. The University offers student jobs in many departments for students to work part-time in research with professors. I am fully satisfied with the course and the country.
Likes (Student Life): Usually there are at least 1-2 seminars or lectures in a day on campus and after attending those, one can also go to the library with other students. The city provides an abundance of opportunities to spend quality time with friends in the city and rooms to study in the library, as well as many intercultural events to network with other students.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are restaurants from several different countries, including Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and Oriental restaurants. As a student the prices at restaurants do not make it possible to eat out regularly, however the University Campus has its own canteen where students can eat food at a discounted price. I usually prefer to cook by myself.
