Both IIT and TUM Munich are very good in different fields. IITs give greater emphasis to UG studies, and maintains stronger connections in the Indian job market. TUM offers a better research environment and has a better global network. Which one is better depends on what a student is looking for. IIT is great for students interested in a solid career in India. TUM is better for deep research on international roles. Students can expect much higher costs of living in Germany.
