University of Kassel Programs: Tuition fees, Ranking, Scholarships, Application Deadlines & Entry Requirements

I found my master's course well organized. This course is run by 6 European partner universities and some other developing country partner universities including China and India. So, this program gives wide exposure to the students by giving them opportunities to study in at least two partner universities. Usually, students from developing countries are encouraged to study in developed countries universities, and in developed countries, students are encouraged to study in developing countries universities. So, it gives flexibility to the students to choose the courses as per their choice and get trained in those subjects. Being rural development students, we were taken to visit dairy production units, and vegetable and fruit processing industries and also offered to do a case study on rural governance in Europe. Hence, overall it was an unimaginable experience for me. Currently, in Ph.D., I don't have to attend coursework because it's a project-based position in which the candidate has to do a lot of fieldwork and data evaluation. If needed then they are allowed to join workshops and seminars.

During my master's, it was 8000 euros per year. For Ph.D. its 300 euros per semester.
