My MSc in ESMT Berlin Experience

Likes

The campus is beautiful. The location is right in the heart of Berlin.
Internship module: I had a chance to work with large well known corporates right along with my studies which gave me an edge while applying for full time jobs.
Diverse class: The class was quite diverse in terms of nationality (atleast 20+ different nationalities)

Dislikes

The admin departments (Program office, exam office etc.) are very slow to respond and also miss out on key information
Length of the program: I felt like this program could have been wrapped up in 1-1.5 years instead of 2 years.
Career services: They were not super helpful, the internships and jobs I got were through my personal hardwork and skills.

I used whatsapp groups, facebook groups and platforms like immoscout and wunderflats.
I found my accommodation on wunderflats and it was 350 euros per month.
My apartment is 35 min away from my university
The greatest challenge is not falling for scams. Especially in berlin, there are a lot of scams. Hence, only book apartments through trusted and verified platforms like wunderflats.

ESMT Berlin - My Dream University

Likes

Diversity and inclusivity, internationalization, curriculum
Social impact project with exposure to multiple countries, University clubs and activities
Good exchange programs with top notch other universities such as SMU and IE Spain

Dislikes

Hectic first semester curriculum, too many group activities,
limited focus on practical software skill improvement such as excel, more industry focus would help, limited campus space
limited batches- more batches could help in further improved networking

I used Facebook Marketplace and Immoscout to find accommodation.
The monthly rent for my accommodation was around 950 euros for 2 people. This included water, electricity, and wifi charges.
One of the primary challenges was finding affordable accommodation in a convenient location that is closer to my university and has good connectivity in terms of public transportation.
Recommendations for Future Students: do good networking via LinkedIn, start applying, and make sure you have someone at the location who can visit the location to ensure you are not scammed.

ESMT Berlin - A student's journey

Likes

Course content: the courses are very tailored to ESMT and case based rather than just theory
Professors: the professors are very engaged and knowledgeable. They take a personal interest in your learning journey
Campus and facilities: the campus is beautiful because it’s a heritage building and is protected. It also has lovely study rooms that are private and can be booked

Dislikes

No job support; they do not support in placement. No companies come to campus.
Restaurant: The food is actually not great so I don’t love the cafeteria
Overpriced: to some extent I do think it’s not great value for money. You can get the same/similar content for less money in other colleges

Off campus student housing at Berlinovo with the help of student services also.
Monthly rent was around $500.
Berlin is a highly competitive market and it's hard to find houses here. You need to be extremely vigilant and take it very seriously. Start well in advance. Getting into student houses is next to impossible but if you do, lock in a 2-year contract.
Most Indian students stay in cheap student houses. My accommodation was around 40 minutes away

Studying Business Masters in the capital of Europe's economic engine

Likes

Top business school in the largest European economy. The school has good ties with the industry and located in one of the Europe's booming tech hub of Berlin
Best price to performance ratio and personalized care by the career services. Also, the frequent alumni connect helps you to network and grow your career. This continues even after graduation.

Dislikes

The charm for B-Schools in Germany low in Germany, unlike other European countries. Hence, the school is relatively unknown outside the german corporate world

My time studying Masters in Management at ESMT, with a focus on Business Analytics, was great. The course was really interesting, taught me a lot about data and how it applies to business. One of the best parts was how ESMT helps you connect with industry and the alumni. This has helped me to learn a lot and advance in my career.

Bang for Buck university

Likes

ESMT Berlin is a very reputed university in Germany often in the top 10 rankings. Most of the graduates find jobs within 3 months of graduation. The curriculum is also carefully designed depending on industry requirements since all the founders of the university are Large German corporations.
The campus and diversity of student really adds to the experience. The quality of education is really good as compared to Indian universities. There is also lot of options for extracurricular activities during the program which also adds to the non academic experience.

Dislikes

The course was designed for general management focus and there was no focus on advanced topics such as Machine learning, analytics etc. However, now they have changed the course and there is now a dedicated Masters in AI and Machine Learning which is a good improvement.

Overall it was a very good experience, the diversity at the university was also very good with around 37 nationalities represented. The courses were also fun and engaging. Post graduation career support is also a huge plus point.
