M.Sc in Technomathematics (In German) - Batch of 2027

5.0

A Challenging and rewarding Experience in an International Environment

Tips: Students should know that before joining the education system is quite independent and needs a good self-discipline. Professors are there to guide, but students are expected to be independent, take care of their studies and be responsible for meeting deadlines. Also it is very useful to know some German for the daily life.

Likes (Value for money): The university offers an open, international, academically stimulating environment. My day is usually spent attending lectures and seminars, doing assignments or projects and studying in the library. What I like most is meeting students from different countries and having chances to work together with them.

Dislikes (Student Life): The professors and lecturers are very knowledgeable and helpful. They are, on the whole, open and friendly, and students can usually get in touch with them during office hours or by e-mail if they need academic advice. The teaching method is a mix of theory and practice.

Friendly university, good campus in Bremen

Tips: In the initial few days, it will seem very hard, with all the documentation. But you will breathe some fresh air and instantly like the feel over here. People are softer, there is less noise, and every place seems very clean (Other than Hauptbahnhof, of course). But the grey weather is something that I really hate. Although over time it will get better. Just enjoy the master's life, make some friends, study hard, and you will enjoy it here.

Likes (Value for money): Value for money because, in terms of fees, I only pay semester fees, which cover the transportation cost on public transport as well. Bremen's public transport is really good; trams are clean, and buses are on time and spacious. So, I don't mind paying around 400 euros per semester for this.

Dislikes (Part time work): Honestly, there are very few options regarding part-time work. Odd jobs are available, but the demand is increasing day by day, and it is even getting harder to get a part-time job alongside studies. I have contacted multiple professors at the university to ask if they need any student assistants, but they mostly said they don't have funds to hire me. Although I have a minijob, which pays me 603 euros per month at a 15.20 euros per hour rate.

Masters Program at Bremen: Worth It, With Some Adjustments

Tips: There is a real cultural shift: Germans are direct and formal, which took some adjusting to. The weather is grey and rainy most of the year, so prepare for that. Admin tasks like visa and registration are very slow, so start early. Overall, I am satisfied with the programme and the university.

Likes (Public transportation): Public transport here is genuinely one of the best things about living in Bremen. The tram and bus network (BSAG) connects campus to pretty much everywhere in the city; the buses/tram come frequently, so you are rarely waiting long. As a student, the semester ticket covers all public transport, so I don't pay anything extra to get around, which honestly makes a huge difference for the budget. It is clean, reliable, and easy to navigate even if you are new to the city. Whether it is going to the supermarket, city centre, or just exploring on weekends, I never feel like I need a car here.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Honestly, Indian food options here are pretty limited and expensive. There are a couple of Indian restaurants near the city center, but eating out regularly there costs around 12 to 18 EUR per meal, which adds up fast on a student budget. There is no proper Indian grocery store super close to campus either, so I usually take the tram into town to get spices and lentils from an Asian store, which is a bit of a hassle. Because of this, I end up cooking for myself almost every day rather than eating out, since it is way cheaper and I can actually make food that tastes like home. It would be great if there were more affordable Indian or South Asian options closer to the accommodation.

Cool college to study in

Tips: Uni Bremen is honestly a solid spot to study. The campus layout is super convenient, professors are actually approachable, and the overall student culture is very laid-back. The Mensa food gets the job done, but brace yourself for grey Northern German weather and rain most of the year. As long as you don't slack off on coursework early in the semester, living and studying here is a great experience.

My college is very goooood

Tips: Moving to Germany and starting at the University of Bremen definitely comes with a sharp learning curve. You aren't just adjusting to a different lifestyle and culture in Northern Germany—you also have to adapt to an academic system that demands total self-reliance and independent time management. That initial transition can feel overwhelming during your first semester, but it's 100% worth it. One huge advantage here is the internship setup. Because the campus is right next to the Technologiepark—and Bremen has massive industry ties in aerospace, logistics, and tech—finding relevant Werkstudent (working student) positions or research internships is very doable once you settle in. The university provides a solid platform, provided you're ready to embrace the culture shock and take charge of your own studies.
