Living at 250€/month in Frankfurt | Cubity | Student housing

By Admin
Did you know that, you could rent a room in Frankfurt for just 250€/month? Yes, what you heard is true; a student pilot project "Cubity" is in place for revolutionising the housing by cutting down space, energy consumption and rent costs.  Cubity is a joint project at Frankfurt-Niederrad as a part of the "Home: Building and Living in Community" pilot project, which is jointly implemented by the Department of Integrated Urban Development and the German Architecture Museum and funded by the BMUB within the framework of the National Urban Development Policy. Anyone who has been to Germany will know that, renting a house in major cities like Frankfurt is a nigthmare and that too, it is more difficult if you are looking for housing at student rates. Cubity is more like a saviour to all those, who are looking for cheap accommodation. But, the downside being - room are only 7.2meters in size.

My PhD experience in Germany | Geosciences | Anusha Sunkisala

By
*This is a Guest post - I am happy to collaborate with Ms. Anusha for this opportunity* I am a PhD student in the University of Hamburg since June 2016. I am working on the project titled "Coupling concepts based on Domain Decomposition methods". The final goal of my PhD is to couple  models (for example, ocean and ice) through domain decomposition methods. I did my Master's in IIT Bhubaneswar, India in the Department of Earth, Ocean and Climate Sciences. But now my PhD is in the Department of Numerical methods in Geosciences. Its  all about Application of Mathematics to the Geoscience problems. How I applied for PhD in Germany: If you are interested, there is a youtube video of mine which was done by Bharath Choudary.

Why you should goto Consultancies! (Pun intended)

By Admin
Everyone are applying for higher studies and going abroad! Many apply on their own, some ask their friends for help, but most of them apply via Consultancies. I am here to explain you, what really happens when you go to consultancies. ~This post is only relatable, if you are applying for Europe or Germany. ~ ~I know this is a long post, please read till the end~ Image source: Google #1 University selections: The consultancies will tell you that, your grades are comparatively low. You can apply for 5 universities and they will take care of the rest and get you an admission. Reality:   The consultancies will not guide you in anyway. They do not know anything about the University or the course. They will not understand your area of specialization or your career interest. Their main aim is to get you one admit and send you off. What you need?: You do not need any consultancy to help you, you need only some advice and guidance from the people who are already in German...

In the past one year, there have been numerous times, many of my friends, relatives, kith and kin have asked me one same question, "HOW DO THEY TEACH THERE??" or "HOW'S THE TEACHING DIFFERENT FROM THE COLLEGES IN INDIA.?".  First and foremost, i would like to introduce myself as an International student of Indian origin, doing my Masters in Germany.

FREE EDUCATION IN GERMANY!!

By Admin
Yes!! You heard it right, doing Masters in Germany is mostly free of cost. It is not fully free of cost, but comparatively it is very less than doing Bachelors in most of the countries. As a student, you many have to pay around 300 euros per semester.   In the recent years, Germany has made its education, free of cost. You may ask, how does Germany manage to provide free education, it is very simple. In Germany the people agree to pay high taxes, which they get back as very good services from the government. And moreover, Germany has a lower percentage of students opting for college, contrary to countries like America or India. In fact, from long back, there had been no tuition fees in Germany, but there are still some universities collecting a small amount of fees as a process to speed up the process of completing the degree.  WHY GERMANY? To your surprise, there are other countries like Denmark, Finland, Sweden and some Northern European countries, who provide ...

How to spend less, when you are studying abroad?

By Admin
When you are studying abroad, one of the toughest things is to NOT SPEND more; because till now you would have got your pocket money from your parents and there is a high chance that you wouldn't have managed the expenses till now. But, when you live abroad you are burdened with all the groceries, clothes, etc., that you have buy on your own and you gotta manage it well.  Trust me, it is going to be difficult. I have seen many people, who have the new-found liberty to spend as they wish and at the end of the semester, they will be asking for money again from their parents. I wish that, you will not be in this position. The main reason for this is, you are in a new financial system, with new currency and different pricing methods.  You may think that, studying abroad and living alone will train you to be an successful adult. In reality, the money management process comes as the first step that you will be taking towards becoming an adult. So, here are some tips that...
