The guide

Why choose Germany?

Germany is renowned for its tuition-free or low-cost public universities, engineering excellence, and strong industry links. As Europe’s largest economy, it offers outstanding career prospects, especially in engineering, technology, and the sciences.

Campus life and student culture

Germany offers an affordable, high-quality lifestyle with excellent public transport and a rich cultural scene. A growing number of English-taught master’s programmes make it accessible even before you learn German.

Immigration, visas and post-study work

Non-EU students generally need a student visa and a blocked account to prove funds. After graduating, an 18-month residence permit lets you look for work related to your degree.
