The best university in Germany, that comes at the price of being extremely challenging.

Tips: The courses are very interesting and taught in-depth, but the exams are very challenging for every course. There are often exams with above 50% of the attendees failing the exam. But one can be assured that when you pass subjects here, you will be well versed in the subject.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The German government has recently made changes to make immigration easier. The new law also makes sitting in Germany easier. While I am not very versed in the intricacies of this law, it has been much discussed in the publi...

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.

The university provides with the opportunities to grow and explore in your course of studies.

Tips: Before joining this college students should know that there will be cultural shifts but one should be able to manage. There was no tuition fee until the summer 2024 intake but starting the winter 2024 intake they have started charging tuition fees however, there are exceptions available which you can check by visiting the university's website. The University, course and country are nice but knowing German is key and could very well be the difference between liking it or not. A popular scholarshi...

Wonderful place with great minds from across the globe.

Tips: Students should know that as a highly ranked university, TUM has certain prerequisites required for the study programme. Make sure you have enough knowledge and skills before applying or joining. Technical universities in Germany look into your grades in the admission process and these are more research-oriented. It's never too late to grow, and nothing is impossible so improve your skills and apply them.

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.

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. ...

Technical university is a public research university

Tips: Exams are tough here because time constraint is the main factor. As far as the courses are concerned, they offer a multi-dimensional subjects according to my degree program and also you have the freedom to choose as many subjects as semester wise. But it is wise enough to select fewer subjects in order to write and pass the exam with flying colours.
