What students say about Technical University Dresden


Likes

  • An entire semester is dedicated to research, and it greatly helped me expand my career and pursue a PhD.
  • As my program was solely research-based, I gained valuable exposure to my field of interest and research.
  • Students are welcome to take on projects and theses offered by the professors during the course, which will make them well prepared for full-time opportunities after the course.
  • Campus Life is very lively here with lots of activities taking place that allow us to meet new people and engage with them.
  • The Studentenwerk/Student Accommodation is well maintained and mostly very close to the university with affordable rates.
  • Although there is a per-semester fee contribution of about 300 Euros, which includes a student semester ticket for free usage of public transport, and also free usage of rental bikes for an hour.
  • Each student has an assigned mentor throughout the course, which is great in case of any questions.
  • Well-structured with great international exposure (~34,000 students), excellent research facilities, and a friendly environment.

Dislikes:

  • Only few English taught courses. Although you can survive comfortably with only English. Somehow German is required to integrate with the local population. Feels like you are in this small comfortable university bubble. Need German to get out of it. null

The experience in TU Dresden was the best. Especially when I already knew that I wanted to do a PhD, the program prepared me well. It was very cheap compared to US or any other part of the world. I didn't have to take money from my parents. I was self sufficient.

Dislikes:

  • The course can be somewhat difficult at times as there are a lot of things to manage at once, i.e., studying, working and doing other chores. You need to adjust to the weather and focus on your health. null

The onboarding to the university is very smooth and the course is very informational. The teachers are well versed and up-to-date with the latest research in their area of expertise.

Dislikes:

  • There is not enough emphasis on the fields of analog design and RF here. Also my course contains some courses that are not really necessary. There is work going on from the student council side to make the course more streamlined for Nanoelectronics so hopefully this will change soon. null

Overall I feel the university as well as this place is very welcoming to me and my interests. Outside academic life this is culturally also a great place to live in.

Dislikes:

  • There isn't anything that I dislike about my university. The professors who take lectures are well experienced in their domain and has extensive research topics under them. The university offers multiple master programs in English and heartily welcomes international students. null

I love my university, TU Dresden and is grateful for the opportunities it has given me. The university has a wonderful library located next to it. Students have access to a lot of events and activities at the university. The professors and faculty members are well-versed in their fields with interesting research taking place in the background where students can contribute too. Students can stay at student dorms provided by the university at lower rents compared to outside. The university is located at Dresden in the state of Saxony where history and industry thrive. Additionally, the cost of living is comparatively lower at Dresden than other popular cities in Germany. I totally recommend the master's program of nanoelectronic systems to all those seeking a good career in the semiconductor industry.

Dislikes:

  • I haven't come across anything that i dislike. And i believe in the future also it wouldn't be there. The University is trying in every single way to indulge students in diversified activities and make the environment international. null

TU Dresden was the most informed decision i have taken in my career and it proved to be right. The experience, both academic and personal was the best I have come across in my life with great support from well knowledge staffs and world class research facilities. Culturally, Dresden is a rich place with a lot of opportunities to indulge yourself in various activities. Personally, I loved living in such a city. After my course, I received PhD offers from University of Auckland (New Zealand), University of Vienna (Austria), Cranfield University (UK), and KU Leuven (Belgium) with generous salary. The position at KU Leuven was a Marie Curie Fellowship which offered me 2.6 crore INR for 3 years.

Dislikes:

  • Nothing much was there to dislike. You may miss home sometimes, native people may sometimes seem cold and unwelcoming and cold weather can be a little testing but it's being very critical. It's a top class university with good faculty and Facilities. null

It's was overall an enthralling experience. New people, culture, environment and research group. Enjoyed my stay there and travelled across whole of europe ( around 15 countries).

Dislikes:

  • The university schedules classes between 7:00AM and 8:00PM depending on the course, and during winter it gets really difficult to make it to the classes be it early morning or late evening as it is very cold and dark in the morning and the sun sets at about 4:00PM in the evening. null

Well structured with great international exposure (~ 34000 students), excellent research facilities and friendly environment.

Dislikes:

  • Masters courses that are in the Centre for Cellular & Molecular Biology (Molecular bioengineering, physics of life and regeneration biology) are in another part of the city and doesn't really possess the student atmosphere seen in the main campus. Moreover, recently there has been a great increase in number of students, causing some issues in organisation of lectures and all. null

Overall, TU Dresden is a wonderful university with a truly international student population, providing affordable education to aspiring researchers and engineers, while not compromising on the quality.

Dislikes:

  • The program is in English and one can complete their studies without any knowledge of German. However, if one wants to attend lectures from advanced courses, they need German proficiency. I wish there were more advanced courses taught in English. null

It is located in a city which is student friendly meaning the cost of living is very affordable. There are various student clubs and activities, sport facilities, and quite a few canteens. The weather is not so extreme compared to nordic countries especially during winters. The summer is the best time here.

7.7 /10

Dislikes:

  • Nothing as such. But few minor things are some course which are very area specific are not having much job opportunities. So I think choosing the location as per the interests of the subjects matters a lot. null

My experience for first year was amazing the best life which I had in my career. But second half It was worst because I had to write two research paper to get my degree. Research paper are not so easy task . They had lots of pressure , mind storming sessions and les guidance. So it was challenging and worth to get the degree at TUD Germany.
