I am very happy to receive all your doubts and questions regarding "Studying in Germany".

Most of you have common questions like choosing university, part-time jobs, etc., I am glad to help you with your doubts, but it would be more convinient if you could post it in the comments section of this post; so that even others can view it and will be helpful for everyone. 

I completely understand your situation, because 2 years back I was also like you. Do not hesitate to comment your questions and doubt, I will do my level best to clarify it.

      I would choose Ilmenau, because it is a TU and there will be lot of research opportunities, comparatively. I would suggest you to go through the course modules and check out which one of the two courses suits your career best.

      Embedded Systems course is good. You have lot of options in fields like Image processing, RTS, EDA, Networking, etc., Since it is a "technical university", there are many research opportunities as well.

      I would suggest not to worry about job opportunities at this stage.

      Hello Saransh,
      My knowledge is limited in the field of Medicine. As far as I know, most of the medical courses are in German language and I suggest you to approach DAAD office in your city for further details, because they will have a better understanding and can help you a lot more.

      All the best for your career

      Hello,

      Pursuing a Masters studies will always be "worthy", if you're sincere and have a real passion towards the subject/field. I have to warn you that, doing Masters isn't a piece of cake; you have to struggle hard and face many difficulties in terms.

      Regarding the job prospects in Germany, kindly have a look at this article:

      Hello Yamini,

      The below answer is completely according to my experiences and observations, also the choices are my personal opinions.

      Between Jena & Magdeburg, I would prefer Magdeburg. If you get the other two courses, then I would choose TU Chemnitz(I am from TUC). I know more about the Embedded Systems course in TU Chemnitz and I feel it is good, considering all the other aspects.

      I have limited knowledge about Rostock.

      Hello Vasudha,

      In reality, no one knows whether the university will consider GRE is the CGPA is low and there is no proof for that statement.

      I suggest you to go through the course modules and subjects, check out the opportunities and then if you're still determined to join that course, then give GRE. Because, if you really want that particular course, then you need to give your best shot at it.

      P.S: This is just my personal opinion. The final decision is with you

      You can apply to universities, but I doubt about the Scholarships. Because, the scholarships need 'excellent' marks/grades. Also, since the German universities aren't going to cost you a lot, many students study without Scholarships

Is it a good idea to join the private universities in Germany?

By Admin
Germany has lot of "public" universities which offer zillion courses in most of the engineering/science disciplines. But still, there are some students who like to apply for the "private" universities which has better acceptance rate on a comparative basis. The application process for these private universities are much simpler and doesn't take much effort. There are some universities which offer good course modules and practical exposure. On an average, most of the private universities ask for tution fees of around 18-20k EUROS for two years, where your living expenses are not included. Thus for two years you would need to spend around 40k EUROS on a whole. Though the private universities charge tution fees, they would not guarantee an job or Campus placement after your studies.

Which country is better? Germany VS Singapore | Masters studies | MS course

Germany VS Singapore Deciding a path to choose, when you have lot of options in hand is very difficult. When you are applying for Masters studies, there would be a lot of confusion in terms of which country to apply for and there was a question in Quora regarding Germany VS Singapore. Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course. Let me throw some light on the analysis that I had done, based on my experience in Germany(Masters studies) and my observations from my friends who are studying in Singapore. Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer? If you’re from a tropical country, then there is high possibility that you will not like Germany’s climate, but on the other hand Singapore has similar tropical conditions, which makes it easier to adapt.  Winner:  Singapore Course duration:  Most of the courses...
