Empowering education with global exposure.
Tips: Before joining this university, students should know that the academic environment is active and supportive with plenty of opportunities but one needs to take the initiative most of the time. Also the university offers several merit-based scholarships based on academic performance and a statement of purpose.

4.6
A journey of learning and belonging.
Tips: The main transition I had to undergo was the vast difference in weather and the shorter days. People keep to themselves mostly unless asked for help, and that might lead to feeling lonely at times. I did not apply for any scholarships. I am satisfied with my course structure, although it was quite hectic compared to my peers in other fields of natural sciences.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): So far, I have not had any major issues with my residence permit applications. The waiting time could be subject to your area or city but I would rate my chances of getting a permanent residence in Germany quite high. And when the right time comes, I might also seriously consider getting citizenship.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Usually, the options of meals in India are very varied, which might be a little bit of a cultural shock after coming to Germany, therefore I mostly get my cravings of that warm bowl of daal and price satisfied by cooking at home. Although there are a couple of good Indian restaurants in Bonn, but a little on the pricey end.

MSc in Astrophysics - Batch of 2027

Inside MSc Astrophysics at Bonn.
Tips: There is an option to get scholarships under the BCGS framework but it is extremely competitive. The transition from an Indian system of education to the German one is significantly tougher than I had initially presumed. The course structure is awfully hard and the pace can sometimes overwhelm students. But it's an absolute goldmine for those who love this subject.
Likes (Student Life): A lot of student organizations regularly meet at different events and parties. They make sure you feel included. Lots of Beer, free pizzas and barbecue parties, board games, sports and politics are all very common here. You will never feel bored but you may feel overwhelmed.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian food restaurants usually make Indian food in a 'western style'. Authentic Indian food is costly and rare. A solid community of Indian workers means that sometimes you could ask for 'Indian Style' food items and they may provide you with one that tastes just like back at home.

MSc in Geodetic Engineering - Batch of 2025
4.6
The job market is a bit slow due to the inflation.
Tips: Students learn the technical skills before coming to your studies based on your course. Bring warm clothes and cover yourself. You will really learn and enjoy the experience, it is a lifetime opportunity. Learn German before coming to Germany. It will really help with permanent work.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Currently the job market is a bit slow due to the inflation. You would need more experience and apply for many jobs till you get. Also knowing German is a great advantage. Nevertheless you can stay in Germany after completing your studies by a JoS seeker visa.

MSc in Neurosciences - Batch of 2020

Excellent university for starting a research or industry career in Neuroscience.
Tips: Learning German helps a lot, not during the course but after. Most jobs although in English require candidates to also speak German. Also helps to better integrate into society if planning long term here. I did get a scholarship but it is not available anymore. There are many other opportunities to gain like working as a student assistant in a lab for a thesis helped a lot in my case, money wise and professionally. I'm fully satisfied with my course and university. I even pursued my Ph.D. here after Masters and am continuing as a Postdoc researcher here at University of Bonn.
Likes (Indian Food): University Bonn is international and there are always activities going on throughout the year. Bonn is diverse and is excellent for student life. There are German language courses offered by the university for free for the university students. There are career talks, tutorials for students in courses and much more support from the university side.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Excellent infrastructure and research environment. Friendly faculty and faced equal attention from all faculty. Almost all courses offer hands on experience with techniques that are being taught. Lab-oriented courses and practical experience will be heavy. The teaching faculty are mostly German with lab members usually coming from diverse backgrounds.

Master of Medical Immunosciences and Infection - Batch of 2019

Supportive faculty at the University of Bonn.
Tips: Know what you want to do in life, the career paths you are going to choose, what makes you happy and at the same time earns money for you. Learn German it opens many doors for you. Try to find a mini/part-time job so that you are not exhausting your block account. A degree should provide you with essential skills that should land you a job. Tailor your master's programme accordingly.
Likes (Public transportation): In Germany, the Deutschland Ticket allows affordable travel on most public transport nationwide. The University of Bonn provides this ticket upon enrollment. Note that it does not cover long distance trains like ICE or EC. For them, you have to provide additional costs.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): German is key for securing jobs outside academia, where full-time well-paid positions are standard. In academia, limited German is often acceptable if you're proficient in your field. However doctoral studies-the most sought-after academic positions are typically part-time (50-60%), unless exceptions apply.

This makes the admission criteria of the universi
