Course Curriculum

10

Research-based studies are extremely good. But professors mainly teach their own research and expect you to know the basics beforehand. German universities are not like US universities. Completing a Master's degree takes time (almost 3 years on average).

Exams

Course specific subjects must be completed in the Bachelor's degree with GRE 151 Verbal 165 Quants 4.5 Writing; TOEFL 111/120

University is not responsible for finding you a job. Career fairs are regularly held for students to talk to corporates about open positions. If you have a good performance in a Master's Thesis, professors usually give you an opportunity to appear for Ph.D interviews with that research institute.

Internship

I interned at Volkswagen with the AI - research team.

Events

Campus facilities are extremely good. Housing is not provided by the University. You have to find that on your own. Research facilities and libraries are well-equipped. The sports facilities are extremely good. All kinds of sports are given equal attention. Life in Germany is extremely good. The added advantage is there if you know the language and try to blend in with the Germans.

Fees

There are no tuition fees. University charges an amount of approximately 300 EUR per semester for the facilities and free travel around the entire state in which the university is located. If someone wishes not to travel they can give a declaration and get back around 200 EUR out of the 300.

Scholarship

Most German Public Universities have free education so no scholarship is awarded

Faculty
