Good curriculum, supporting staff, nice and beautiful city
Tips: The education system is a little bit different compared to Indian standards, in a good direction; it's more flexible. People are more open and direct, so sometimes it's easier to talk to someone. I did get a scholarship based on my grades and an entrance exam; universities usually have more scholarships to support education. Scholarship usually is around 400 to 600 a month for up to 12 months max.
Likes (Safety): Overall, the surroundings are safe, and people are very polite and helpful. The police department here is more tolerant of international people. There is no additional security anywhere because it's not needed as well. If you are not heavily involved in any political argument, an easygoing person wouldn't be a problem at all.
Dislikes (Internships): Most universities themselves don't offer internships, or most of them don't have tie-ups with companies to offer the internship. In a few cases the faculty members provide the options wherever they have ongoing projects, like in the university or outside of the university. But overall in Germany there's no concept of on-campus recruiting.

Review on Koblenz University
Tips: Moving here from India is a massive culture shock, and you notice the differences the second you land. The University of Koblenz itself is a super relaxed environment—there are zero tuition fees to worry about and attendance isn't mandatory, which sounds amazing, but it means you have to be incredibly self-disciplined or you'll fall behind. You basically have to grow up overnight because you're entirely on your own. Nobody is checking in on you, so managing your own cooking, doing your laundry, and dealing with the crazy seasonal weather shifts becomes your daily life. The winters here get freezing cold, the food is completely different, and even the way people dress and act takes some serious getting used to. It forces you to become way more responsible than you've ever been, but it’s a solid environment once you adapt to the lifestyle.
Likes (Public transportation): Trains and buses are available most of the time, and the ticket costs are funded by the university. The university is near the center of the city, so everything is available by 10 min transportation by buses. You can even stay in the outskirts and have fun and attend the university at the same time.
Dislikes (Internships): Since it is a mid-tier city, the requirements, such as language, are more important, and also the jobs can be applied for in the other cities as well. The internships and other jobs are definitely competitive since you are one of those other people who would have applied for the same job.

Building a life from scratch - Germany Masters Degree Experience
Tips: After coming here I have learned to manage my life all on my own. You don't have family or people you know. Everyone and everything is new. So you learn to handle your life, bills, education, job, and everything on your own. You have to push yourself to get whatever goals you have done. No one is coming to motivate or push you. The cultural shift for me was when I could work part-time in IT and also study side by side. There is no spoon-feeding; you have to learn and figure things out on your own. A lot of things here in Germany have too much paperwork; even simple things in India are complicated here. So you will learn to navigate it. I didn't take any scholarships. I'd say the university is good. It has good elective options. Web and data science is an interesting combination. You can choose more web-based or data science-based electives. As long as you study and do your assignments and are serious about your degree, you can do it. Germany has been a new experience.
Likes (Part time work): On-campus part-time jobs are extremely limited. Most students take off-campus part-time jobs. Non-technical part-time jobs are exhausting, as you need to physically work. If you get a technical part-time job, it's easier to manage academics, as it will mostly be online.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships are not mandatory at my university, and getting internships in the market is not easy. Even people with work experience from India have a hard time getting internships. It can take anywhere from 6 months to 1 year to get a job. At least 500 applications minimum. So landing an internship is not easy. Yes, there are internships relevant to my field in data science and web development.

Very well structured educational course
Tips: I actually made some German friends, and since I’m working part-time at a local company, I’ve gotten a real taste of the work culture here. The work-life balance is seriously great and everyone is super direct. One thing that completely blew my mind was seeing how active the elderly people are—like, you’ll see them driving buses or literally hiking up mountains.
I didn't get a scholarship myself, but the university has plenty of options for top students, plus the usual DAAD grants. Honestly the course itself is great but trying to live in Munich is a joke. The housing situation is a total nightmare and finding a decent room for under 700 euros a month is basically impossible.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I would say a solid 5 faculty are really good; some professors even respond to emails within minutes. Each course is structured differently, so I can't compare them. What I really liked is they are updating the syllabus frequently to keep up with the current AI trends. We have new courses like Foundation Model, AI, Human-Entered AI, etc. We have many professors from different nationalities, especially in Web and Data Science courses.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs are available like student assistance. Off-campus job-wise, we are close to Frankfurt and Cologne/Bonn, so many technical opportunities are there. For non-technical, we have McDonald's, Amazon, Lieferando, Burgerme, some local restaurants, etc. Part-time work and studies are both easily manageable, but new students should focus on their mandatories more; for the first 6-12 months, they should solely focus on their studies to understand the German exam structure and get habituated to both the summer and winter (the climate here is not that extreme compared to cities like Hamburg/Munich; it's very manageable). Average pay per hour is according to German work laws, so we can find a decent-paying job to cover rent and bills. It's not a lot to save up unless you are too frugal.

If you struggle with anxiety during exams, be open about it with your instructor at Uni Koblenz. This shows self-awareness and gives the examiner a good chance to take steps to help you.
Students can also use the Leaning Counselling services or contact the General Student Advisory Office directly to

Attendance is not mandatory for regular lectures, however it is generally compulsory for interactive sessions like seminars, labs, and workshops.
For courses/sessions with strict attendance requirements, students are allowed 2 absences without documentation. If you miss 3 sessions, then medical/other
