Quality Of Education

German quality is well-known worldwide. Even in the world of education, this is true. The majority of universities and colleges receive public funding. Therefore, the idea of purchasing a degree, as is done in other popular educational locations, does not exist. There is no question that the only requirement for admission is merit. German law prohibits discrimination against or preferential treatment of individuals based on race, ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic status by universities.

The land of ideas is Germany. German society has placed a high value on education, science, and research. Aspirin, Phenol, MP3, Diesel Engine, Tachometer, Electromagnetic radiation, Gauss, Hertz, Ohm, Roentgen, X-ray Crystallography, Automobile, and Zeppelin are only a few inventions that originated in Germany. Germany has produced 103 Noble laureates, as time has proven.

What good is education if it can’t be applied to solve problems in the real world? German education gives both a strong theoretical foundation and practical expertise. Most importantly, it gives students a platform to start a career by mandating internships and Bachelor’s or Master’s Theses in an industrial setting.

Cost

Be not scared! You won’t spend a fortune on your German education. You don’t have to have a silver spoon in your mouth or spend the rest of your life paying off student loan debt.

1. Tuition Fees (If Applicable)

In the past, the German Federal Government has prioritised funding for public university education. In 2010, 5 of Germany’s 16 states levied tuition fees at universities supported by public funds, while 11 of the 16 states continued to offer free tuition.

3. Basic Living Expenses

Germany has one of the greatest standards of living, but its costs are still on level with those of Western European nations. The cost of living is significantly influenced by lifestyle, location, and kind of housing. According to statistics, Germans spend one-third of their salary on housing. In conclusion, a student would require an extremely conservative estimate of €450 for an affordable & modest lifestyle.

2. Part Time Work ⁄ Student Job

International students are permitted to work up to 20 hours per week during the lecture session and up to 90 full or 180 half-days in a year. This permit’s goal is to enable students to earn while they learn without impeding or diverting them from the main objective, which is finishing their course of study.

Student workers often make between €10 and €15 per hour. Students had the option of working on or off campus. Under the supervision of a professor, taking up a tutoring or teaching assistantship is a common university job. McDonald’s could serve as an example of job performed off-campus. There is no guarantee, but the chances are strong for the one who keeps trying.

Paid Internship

There are many courses that need an internship. The length of an internship could range from three to six months. Companies in their field of study may accept internship applications from students. Finding an internship is entirely the student’s responsibility. You could ask your professors for references or recommendation letters. Companies typically pay students between €600 and €1000 per month. The student may work a part-time job in addition to an internship within the same fiscal year if the internship is specifically listed as a requirement in the course syllabus.

Paid Project Work ⁄ Master Thesis

Numerous industries provide financial support for project work as well as for bachelor’s and master’s theses. For a period of six months, students completing their master’s thesis at businesses are paid between €600 and €800 per month. There are numerous portals where you may seek and apply for Thesis jobs (like stepstone and jobpilot).

Job Prospects

Many of the Fortune 500 companies are based in Germany. A strong economy and global leadership position result in a continuing need for competent and skilled labour. Market diversification and population ageing have only fueled the demand-supply mismatch. According to “The German Engineer’s organisation (VDI),” there have been roughly 30% more openings for engineers in the last year. Non-EU students are permitted to stay for up to a year after their studies are over in order to look for work.

Anywhere in the world you travel, German qualifications will undoubtedly be given preference. Outstanding universities that emphasise research and application-based learning are unmatched. Additionally, no employer can overlook the distinctive benefit.

Social Life

Climate

Seasonal temperatures in Germany are moderate. In contrast to the East, where winters can be harsh and summers can be extremely hot, the west tends to have pleasant winters and cool summers.

Environment

Germany has a forest cover of over 33%. Germany is incredibly concerned about protecting the environment. Through incentives, subsidies, and public awareness campaigns, clean energy is actively pushed.

Geography

Germany is perfectly situated in the middle of Europe, bordered by nine nations: Denmark to the north, Poland and the Czech Republic to the east, Austria and Switzerland to the south, France to the southwest, and Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands to the west.

Demographics

According to the Federal Statistics Office, assuming a net migration of 100,000–200,000 per year, the current population of 82 million people will decline to between 65 and 70 million people (by 2060). Around seven million foreign nationals were registered in Germany as of December 2004, and 19% of the populace was of foreign or partially foreign ancestry. Germany is home to the third-highest number of international migrants globally, according to the United Nations Population Fund.

Despite its turbulent past, modern Germany is hospitable and forward-thinking. Democracy, Equality before law, globalisation have all resulted in a free & open society giving dignity, respect, opportunity & equal playing field even to foreigners.
