  • Dislikes:
  • I did not like that one is left on their own when it comes to curriculum planning. It can get really overwhelming for international students and a bit more hand-holding in the first semester would go a long way. Also, the professors consider that you know everything about the academic system (exams, etc) there already, and do not give personal attention to international students.

Campus Life:

Just excellent! I found myself bewildered looking at the abundance of extracurricular activities at TUM. There was always some or the other event going on. The student community is very active. There are various clubs such as Studentische Verein for student politics and ESN TUMi for foreign students. They organise regular trips and treks; language meets, food and movie fests etc. so one never feels alone in a foreign country. The Gym membership and sports facilities at ZHS were accessible and affordable. The library was very well organised too.

Hostel:

Student dorms are available on a first come, first serve basis with the Studentenwerk Munich. You need to apply for it on the given dates for your semester. These can be single occupancy rooms in a shared dormitory or single occupancy studio apartments. Rentals range from 270 euros to 750 euros. The infrastructure at these student dormitories is well-maintained and the costs include all overhead costs of heating, electricity and WiFi. One can even take up private accommodation in shared apartments called WG (Wohngemeinshaft) that one can easily find on online Facebook groups or websites like wg-gesucht.de .

  • Dislikes:
  • There are no particular things I dislike about the university. But one thing I'm not used to is the examinations. For example, for most of the exams, we are not provided with the previous year's question papers to practice. This is not ideal, especially in a problematic subject where ample practice and understanding of the previous exam patterns are essential. There is also no separate question-and-answer paper, we are provided with questions printed with space left for answers. Some papers have space in the back for the correction but one of the exams I gave did not so rewriting the answer was not possible. The exams are also notorious for having really little time.

Campus Life:

There are around 180 student clubs with everything ranging from Business and entrepreneurship to religious and spiritual. We also have numerous social, cultural, casual as well as career-oriented events frequently. The university also has support for the startup ideas of the students. The library offers a variety of free resources to assist the studies and also provides a large study space. The wifi is unlimited and free to use. There are no sports facilities on my campus but they have a separate campus for sports science which the TUM students can access at a very cheap price.

Hostel:

The university does not provide accommodation and it is our responsibility. Currently, I live in a shared flat with 4 other people and have my room. I pay 470 euros but the average rent in Munich can go up to 650-700(I live outside Munich). The city has various student dormitories that provide rooms for cheap but due to competition, they are hard to get.

  • Dislikes:
  • Exams are very tough here and there is no proper book where we can study from. The lectures are taught in the form of slides and one has to understand everything in order to pass the exams

Campus Life:

Campus life is very good and diverse. Students from all over the world come here to study and the infrastructure is very modern.

Hostel:

Accommodation here is a big problem and one should be prepared to face it. Student dorms have waiting periods of atleast 3 semesters and there private rooms are the only option.

  • Dislikes:
  • "Accomodation is very tough thing here and if you really are considering coming here, then I would advise you to research your things thoroughly . Also you need to be self dependent here and have to try and work it out yourself . "

Campus Life:

The campus is amazing, and have lot of clubs. The culture here is pretty laid-back and cool. Research facilities are top notch and library is one of the best thing here.

Hostel:

You have dorms here but accommodation is tough situation here in Germany so I can't exactly say that it's an easy sport

Campus Life:

The campus of NTU was beautiful, TUM-Asia wasnt much of a campus but a building, so we used NTU facilities on a daily basis.

Hostel:

NTU provided the accommodation or you could look for one yourself .. costs about 400-800 SGD per month

Campus Life:

Garching Campus is huge !! A river flows through it :P There are a lot of clubs in TUM and to be a part of any one of them you simply need to ask the corresponding members (and maybe apply if there are too many students who are applying to be a member of the same club). Garching Campus Library is the most extensive library on all of TUM's campuses. The campus has a basketball court, football court, table tennis, beach volleyball etc. Munich already has a lot of fests such as Oktober fest. But many events are organised by the TUM community such as hackathons, business games etc.

Hostel:

For stay, students either search for student-dorms, but the waiting time is 3 to 4 semesters or even more (some get it some don't), others search for shared apartments or studios on websites such as wg-gesucht.de or maybe approach housing anywhere (costly) or even Airbnb(costly). Note that TUM does not offer on-campus housing. In Munich, food + housing would cost you anywhere around 400 to 800 euros depending on your rent. The cheaper the rent the lower your cost of living goes. So I would say around 500 euros is pretty normal. But people manage with less also and there are people who spend more also. TUM does have a mess where you can have your lunch but again nothing is free. You would have to pay for the food.

Hostel:

On-campus accommodation is hard to get and the accommodation outside is quite expensive.

TUM is the best technical university with diverse faculty and with various research opportunities.

Flatshare types are the most common. If you're taking this course the campus is 40kms away from Munich and the rent is lower maybe 300-350 euros on average. With higher rent, you get many better-furnished rooms or close proximity to the campus.

It was the best university in Germany for the last 6 years and is also internationally recognized. TUM provided the best opportunities for students to get their dream job or further strengthen their research skills. This particular program caught my eye because sustainability is the way forward in the coming years and my interest was always in making sustainable societies with judicious resource use.

Student union dorms, personal co sharing. Munich is a very costly place to live in.

Excellent academic, wide variety of courses, research oriented and very very less tuition fees.

Hostel:

I stayed in a student hostel which provided all the necessary things for a living situation like a nearby supermarket and malls to make any important purchase.

It is a well-reputed university with well-maintained labs to get hands-on experience along with excellent teaching faculty. Also, I believed that I could get into this university with my academic scores.
