Great faculty and opportunities to grow.
Tips: Before joining the Technical University of Munich (TUM), students should be aware that TUM has high academic standards, so be prepared for challenging coursework and a focus on research. While many programs are in English, some require proficiency in German. Check the language prerequisites for your course. Students should budget for living expenses, including accommodation, food, and insurance. Munich is one of Germany's most expensive cities. TUM has campuses in Munich, Garching, and Weihenstephan. Be familiar with your program's primary location. TUM offers excellent student support, including career services, counselling, and access to student organizations. Learn about German culture, punctuality, and etiquette. It helps in daily life and networking. TUM offers internships, industry connections, and access to cutting-edge research so take advantage of these. Be prepared for detailed paperwork, including student visas, health insurance, and residence permits. Planning ensures a smoother transition to life at TUM and in Germany.
Likes (Internships): Student life in Germany is exceptional due to its vibrant cultural diversity, affordable living, and world-class educational opportunities. The country's emphasis on a balanced lifestyle, extensive student support, accessible public transportation, and rich history create a unique, enriching experience.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The faculty at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are leaders in their fields. They are experts in their fields and are globally recognized for their research excellence. They balance academic rigour with real-world applications and foster innovation and support their students.

TUM is a great college with great connections and good quality education.
Tips: Students should know that the exams are not going to be easy to crack. The University is good and provides you with an extremely independent life. A lot of hard work and study are required to excel in everything. Internship opportunities are widely available. Being in a city should not be a problem in computing and it is flexible enough to extend your semesters. Overall I am fully content and satisfied.
Likes (Public transportation): One ticket and we can travel anywhere in Germany using their public transport. Every campus has either a subway station or a bus station. My campus is well connected and very near to the city centre from where most of the trains depart and it is extremely affordable.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships are easily available at the university and even companies offer them. You can approach your seniors or batch mates, that's the best way to get any information regarding any internships or working student opportunities.

A diverse and empowering student life with pragmatic challenges.
Tips: Not much difference has happened to me. I learned a new language. I have not availed of any scholarships. But there are scholarships to which I have applied and my friends received them. The allowance is around 300 Euros/month. I am fully satisfied and happy.
Likes (Student Life): College days are truly refreshing as they offer the chance to meet new people from diverse cultures which I find exciting. I actively participate in events like IKOM, Sustainability Day and events like IFAT. There are also clubs for language learning, planting sees, excursions and many more.
Dislikes (Indian Food): As a student from south India in Munich, I struggle to find authentic Indian food as local Indian restaurants are expensive and lack authenticity. I prefer cooking but due to lack of time, affordable options like McDonald's or ready-made packets are helpful.

A haven for innovation, learning, and camaraderie.
Tips: Moving to a different country far away is always challenging. The weather, day-to-day tasks, conversations with peers, along with quite a few other factors come into play that seem to have changed drastically, and one needs to be headstrong to overcome such situations. I personally am quite proud and feel satisfied with TUM and Germany.
Likes (Value for money): Most public universities in Germany are free of charge, hence they deserve a 5-star rating for value of money. It is one of the main reasons why students from different parts of the world apply to Germany to get a pristine education and a plethora of career opportunities.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Learning German is a slow and difficult process for a lot of individuals, although once you get the hang of it, it'll help you communicate better at the university and your job. After living in Germany for a certain time period, anyone can apply for citizenship. I personally haven't given it much thought, although my peers would speak differently about the same.

Too much hype, but not worth it
Tips: MSPE is not recommended. Not worthy. May be MSCE or MIM is good. No network no branding, not worthy of investment. I'm a very poor student, suffering financially. Rich kids get fake volunteering certificates and take all the scholarships, poor people never get any despite being genuine. They value academics and fancy fake volunteering certificate and not real need for scholarships.
Likes (Safety): The place is best in safety! Things hands down are safe, we have a good police system and a lost and found system. You can find anything lost easily. No threats, public attacks, robbery or crimes. Generally very safe. Not sure about other cities, I'm talking about Munich.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): No good food, people are not friendly, the worst healthcare in world. No good technology for finance. Everything is appointment-based and super slow. Racism is quite high. Your Indian community helps you a bit to enjoy, otherwise not great. Too costly and overhyped accommodation. Thanks to brokers for getting a place.

Stepping out of my comfort zone
Tips: Initially, it was difficult to adjust to a new language. I think people need to keep an open mind when coming here and not stick to their comfort zones. I did not opt for any scholarships but they do exist for specific courses. I am pretty satisfied with my university and course. I feel like there are other countries I would be more comfortable in but it is not difficult to live here.
Likes (Public transportation): Campus is well-connected and the public transport infrastructure is very good. Students get reduced ticket prices as well. There are occasional delays or cancellations but I think that is common everywhere. If you stay in a well-connected area your life is significantly easier.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The restaurants here very expensive and the food is pretty subpar. It is much more economical to cook ourselves. A standard meal for one here would cost in the range of 10-15 euros. Along with inflation that is pretty pricey for a student unless you have a job.
