- There are multiple reasons, the first being my love for science and the second being the research being carried out at the institute. The MPI is one of the oldest and the most reputed research institute in the world. The institute offers opportunities in various fields, recognition and collaborations with premier labs.
- Well, there in nothing NOT to like. I love the city, the people, the research, the environment and the endless opportunities. I really like the exposure that we get as young individuals towards research and new techniques on a daily basis.
Dislikes
- There is nothing that I dislike, however one thing is that the program is a bit fast. It is a 1.5 year masters' program and you have to be (almost) always on your toes to make up for all the credits. So, there might be some things that you feel you are missing on (like pursuing internship somewhere else). But at the end of the day its worth it.
Campus Life
The MPI campus here is one of the best MPI in germany. The infrastructure is spread over a large area. The campus offere the best facilities and also healthcare. It also has space for playing table tennis, volleyball. Wifi is available for all its student. The campus life is really amazing, as everyone is really warm and friendly. We also have a happy hour every friday evening wherein we can network and meet people from different labs and chat over pizza! This is one of the things I would really miss when I move for my PhD.
Accommodation
I live in a student dorm. It is shared with three other people. The dorms are really nice and we also get to socialise with other dorm mates. We have a private bedroom but share the kitchen. The rent ranges from 200 euros to 350 euros. The rent for my room is 240 euros.
Campus Life
Since covid all extracurricular activities are stopped and we have very few of them. May be they are gonna start again from next year
Accommodation
Here we have all kinds of accommodation and student is free to choose. I stay in a single apartment with own kitchen and washroom. My friends stay in shared apartment with shared kitchen and washrooms. I really like the infrastructure and its for students.
Campus Life
Campus life is good. There is no club in the campus as such, but there are many clubs in the city, and nearby the main campus. Since, the city of Goettingen is not so big, everything can be reached within half an hour. The campus infrastructure is great, and the library is pretty amazing; there is a lot of literature and one can find good books on every topic. Wifi is fast. There is a dedicated sports complex where one can play a lot of sports. The membership costs only 3? per month, and with the membership one can play any sport from the available options. It'll also cover the cost of injury that may happen while playing.
Accommodation
The problem one can face is regarding the accomodation. There is usually a waiting period of 6-12 months in the hostel and dorm rooms. So, we have to look for rooms after getting there. There are some apps where one can look for a room, like wg-gesucht, and try to get a room before reaching Göttingen. If one is not able to find a room on the app, what they can do is book an Airbnb for a few days; When they'll reach Göttingen they can visit Gottinger hausverwaltung and from there they can get a room easily.
