My honest take on studying in Stuttgart.
Tips: Well, students should know that Stuttgart is a big city and you might feel a bit lost in the beginning. If you are someone who likes European architecture and buildings, I will have to disappoint you because Stuttgart is not the most beautiful city when it comes to architecture. They do have a lot of industrial opportunities which also comes with a lot of competition from other international students. Unfortunately you also won't have the most international environment in your classes if you decide to pursue engineering here because mostly there are Indians so you might have to put yourself more out there for sports and extra curricular activities so that you can interact with more international people. We do have a lot of nature spots here. If you like nature and forest and hiking, you might like it here, especially on the Vaihingen campus at the University of Stuttgart.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty here is highly qualified and they have themselves studied from the world's best institutions. They are quite passionate at what they do. The research institutes also offer a wide range of thesis topics which can be pursued in order to fulfil your areas of expertise in the course of your Masters studies.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of permanent settling in the city of Stuttgart are less because the Visa office has really long waiting days. If you need to switch your visa from student to job seeker or a full time employee, it is a very overwhelming process. You could work in Stuttgart but it is highly recommended to shift to nearby cities in order to have smooth paperwork regarding the bureaucracy.

Stuttgart city and TU Stuttgart experience.
Tips: The Stuttgart city is not like a typical European city, which someone would expect, but it has decent leisure options. You would probably meet more people from different parts of India itself. You need to put in effort to make friends with people outside your country. Few people also have the opportunity to get the Deutschlandstipendium which gives you a scholarship of 300 euros per month for a year. The university staff is responsive, and local people are helpful as well.
Likes (Public transportation): The S-Bahn stop is right at the center of the University, and not just that, even the bus stop is directly in front. Once you have the Deutschlandticket, the connectivity is great. You can get to the main station in around 15 minutes, and have a lot of other options to go to like parks, shopping centres.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are quite a few Indian restaurants around, which are decent, and you could go there once in a while. On average, the cost per person at a restaurant is at least 15 euros, and as a student, it is a bit on the higher side for a one time meal. Once you know how to cook, you would not prefer spending so much money for just one meal.

A perfect blend of academia and industry.
Tips: The academic transition was very drastic when I arrived in Germany. My Bachelor's at Savitribai Phule Pune University had a simple, straightforward curriculum and exam pattern, so it was initially difficult to adjust to the concept based lectures and exams at Stuttgart. I didn't apply for scholarships interested candidates can find information online. I am completely satisfied with my university and course. As a technical university, Stuttgart offers complete freedom in choosing courses and electives based on individual interests. There are also opportunities for internships and working student roles, providing valuable industrial exposure and helping students optimise their career paths. Settling in Germany can be challenging due to the demanding language, cultural differences and the current market situation.
Likes (Part time work): It is easy to find on-campus part time jobs at the University, which are mostly known as HiWi (Wissenschaftliche Hilfskraft) or Student Assistant roles. In such roles one can find and contact different Ph.D. students and assist them on their respective projects under their guidance and supervision. It is usually manageable to have a part time job that amounts to 10 working hours per week along with the regular academic activities. The average pay is around 13 euros per hour.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There aren't many Indian restaurants in Stuttgart, and the ones that exist are either expensive or not very good. This is specifically about Indian cuisine; there are still great options for Italian, Thai, Korean, Mexican, or Turkish food in the city. I prefer cooking Indian food at home.

The economy is weak and it's very difficult to find work for less experienced professionals.
Tips: Adapt to German culture and weather, especially in winter. Learn the language to grow your social circle or miss out on networking. The German National Scholarship is available if you have good grades and maintain them for the standard period of study for two years. I am generally quite satisfied, as you have a lot of flexibility regarding courses, how many courses you want to take per semester, and part-time jobs.
Likes (Safety): Generally, Germany is a safe destination for students. The campus is situated in the outskirts of the main city and is surrounded by nice park, forest, and sports facilities. Stuttgart as a city offers a lot - it has a great city center, a lot of museums (Mercedes, Porsche), and the nightlife is also very happening and safe.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): All companies offer sponsor visas, however, right now the economy is weak and it's very difficult to find work for less experienced professionals or students. There are all kinds of job roles on offer, from data scientists to software developers, but you need to demonstrate a lot of skills and experience.

Opportunity to gain good technical knowledge, but less help from the university.
Tips: It's always good to talk to your seniors who have taken the subjects, because a few courses are extremely difficult. I also don't have a scholarship for my course. I'm not really satisfied with the university and the course, particularly, because the university doesn't really help the students in many matters, including studies. I am, however, well satisfied with the country.
Likes (Safety): The campus is generally safe all the time. I'd say it's a common thing in Europe. I never had any bad experiences. I'm sure the police know how to handle things, though. It's pretty safe to travel even at night, too. The transportation facility in the city also helps a lot.
Dislikes (Student Life): The course structure is complex, but you could find time for travelling and engaging with student activities. There are some summer parties, as well as annual parties. Student technical hubs, such as the green club, are pretty active, but student activities overall have limited exposure.

The university is student friendly and people are very friendly.
Tips: Know the German language well. It'll help with part-time jobs and jobs after your studies. There are options for scholarships, but with the blocked account money and part-time jobs, it'll be more than enough to survive. Also, the exams and study patterns here are very different. You need to constantly study and be up to date with classes. Studying a day before the exam will not be useful here.
Likes (Safety): Germany is one of the safest countries in Europe. In my time here, I've rarely faced any racism or other issues. People are friendly here, even cops are helpful. And if you know German, it's gonna be of great help. Public transportation is quite safe and have connection to almost every part of the city.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking by myself. There aren't many Indian restaurants here, and the ones available are expensive for the taste. There are a few Indian grocery stores here where you can get stuff. My suggestion is to learn cooking before you come here. It's better for health and financially wise in the long run.
