MSc in Vehicle Technology (In German) - Batch of 2026
4.2
Theory and research-oriented study program.
Tips: In Germany, there is a division when it comes to higher education - 'University' and 'University of applied sciences'. University focuses more on research and university of applied sciences focus on applied knowledge. Since Stuttgart is a University, it is more theoretical. It is completely in our responsibility to gain experience through clubs, Formula Student or similar things. So it might be stressful, but it is manageable.
Likes (Safety): Germany is generally safe compared to other European countries. Immediate help on and off campus from mentors and tutors. It is easy to get help even from the police or the general public in case of emergencies. There are lots of international affairs people in the university or general coordinators who make sure students feel safe on campus.
Dislikes (Part time work): On campus part time jobs are extremely scarce to find. Also the competition is higher. The pay is relatively very low compared to off campus part time jobs. Since International students who already pay large tuition fee, they won't be choosing on campus jobs unless they are really desperate for a part time job.

Research oriented prestigious university.
Tips: This is a university oriented towards research. Good mathematical skills are expected. There will be some cultural differences in lectures but that will be on the positive side. I did not apply for any scholarships. However, you can look for DAAD scholarships. I liked the course, teaching material and especially the professors.
Likes (Safety): The city is very well connected through public transport via the university campus. I have lived there for 3 years and never heard a concern about safety. You could see police patrolling every in the campus at night sometimes. There are many helpline numbers for emergencies. However it is always advised not to travel alone in secluded areas which is a general advice valid for every place. There is not much of a nightlife in the city, so there is not much you could do during the dark hours.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job market is pretty bad at the moment. Moreover, even with good German language skills the opportunities are too less. Work sponsorship is not needed. You just need to find a job with a minimum salary range then you can get the EU blue card which is a work permit. Generally, after graduation, you can get into a PhD programme, of course you will have a stipend which is approximately 55,000. So it is pretty decent. Apart from this you can work in the industry with an average salary of 60,000 however, it is difficult to find one at the moment. Internships are easy to get but a full-time job is hard.

Challenging but rewarding journey at University of Stuttgart.
Tips: Students should be prepared for a rigorous, mathematically intensive programme. COMMAS is research driven, so self study and good fundamental knowledge in mathematics and programming are important though not necessary. Administrative processes in Germany can be slow, so patience and planning are essential.
Likes (Safety): Student residences have controlled entry systems. I have always felt safe moving around Stuttgart even when it's midnight. The police presence is consistent even when it's too late. The city is generally calm, well organised. I have never had any negative experience so far.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The teaching is highly theoretical and research oriented. The faculty is not very diverse in nationality. They are often very busy with research and projects. Some professors use advanced simulation examples, which is a unique strength. Getting quick response from the professors can sometimes be difficult.

Academically oriented university with good opportunities.
Tips: It's important to research about the course that one is taking. For the Electrical Engineering Master's, a few courses are difficult. It's important to choose a subject that interests you. It's always good to get an opinion about each subject from any senior students before writing the exam. Once you write an exam, it's not possible to register for that subject.
Likes (Part time work): There are good Indian restaurants in the city, but not many options when it comes to South Indian food. There are Sri-lankan restaurants, which do provide good south Indian food as well. Mostly, students cook for themselves as dining out is not an affordable option.

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.
