MSc in Integrated Climate System Sciences - Batch of 2027
4.1
If you are thinking of coming to germany, UHH is a great option. Courses are tough but worth it.
Tips: Managing a part-time job and the very disorganised course and lecture timings. Ability to read and understand the course catalog and cross-check it with our availability and career preferences. The climate in northern germany, its rainy and moody on most days, regardless of the season.
Likes (Value for money): It's very cheap, 40k INR for one sem, which includes a Deutschlandticket for 6 months and a lot of discounts. The best transport system is available in the city itself, so commuting is very easy. The university has more than 22 cafeterias and messes scattered accross hamburg, so cheap food if you are a student.
Dislikes (Internships): It's a science university, so fewer tech companies are interested in it. The university doesn't require any mandatory internships, so internships are not a priority unless the student wants to do one. Most science-based internships are in universities, most of them don't pay but give you credits. So up to you.

Why UHH should be your choice (if you're capable enough)
Tips: It's a very open environment; there's enough help given to anyone who needs it. Opportunities are ample. The infrastructure is one of the best in Europe. Research quality is beyond excellent. Student jobs are abundant. There are scholarships available ranging from 300 a month to PhD levels. Overall a solid 4.7/5.
Likes (Post study jobs): Many national and multinational companies are here. Start-ups are abundant. A lot of English-speaking options. Generally there are more than a hundred good companies, including both established ones and startups. Salaries are ample as per central European standards. Despite being a major metropolitan city, Hamburg is still comparatively affordable.
Dislikes (Student Life): Opportunities, studying, student infrastructure, and events are great; the job fair could be better. Job fair, summer activities, experiments, demonstrations, and induction activities are organized. Tons of student opportunities to choose from. Plenty of cultural, sport, academic, and other clubs of all kinds.

Academically profound university.
Tips: I would say focus on studies every day for around 4 hours, practice as much as you can. Learn German when you have time but before that I will suggest getting students jobs or internships in their relevant fields and preparing for them as early as possible. Make as many professional and friendly networks as you can, they are going to help a lot in getting a job or for any advice.
