University of Bremen

Programs in Engineering, Computer Science, Space Engineering, AI, and Marine Sciences are popular among Indian students at Bremen University.

Sourin, an MSc in AI and Intelligent Systems student at Uni Bremen had the following advice for Indian students:

"I'd advise choose a course based on personal interests instead of market trends. I chose AI because of my genuine interest in field. Make sure to review course catalogs to get an idea of the subject content. The university allows us to mix different subjects."

Both University of Hamburg and the University of Bremen are tuition-free for Indian students. Only semester fee charges apply. The below comparsion between the universities' semester fee suggest the University of Hamburg is more affordable for Indian students.

1 EUR = INR 109.61

Sourin, a MSc in AI and Intelligent Systems student currently studying at Uni Bremen recommends a minimum A2 level of German proficiency for daily life and B1 or B2 level for getting a job. He got an IELTS score of 8 and CGPA above 8.5. However, these alone do not guarantee a job. Many of his classmates with lower scores are also employed.

The Germany job market can be unpredictable at times and selection often depends on the screening process instead of the candidate quality. 

As part of Shiksha Study Abroad's Alumni Connect series, Sourin, a Master's student in Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems shared that while English-speaking jobs exist in Germany, the job search process requires more persistence than in English-speaking countries. Universities don't provide the same level of career support as in India. 

Unlike in India where colleges help with campus placements, students in Germany have to look for jobs independently. Alumni-founded startups associated with the university do provide internships and jobs to Indian students, however.
