The Office of Collaborations organized a virtual talk on higher education in Germany for the Final-year Engineering, MBA and MCA students, focusing on various options and opportunities to the students on 9th October 2020 at 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. The Speaker of the talk was Ms Niketa Dedhia, Principal Consultant, Exponent Consultant Services, USA.
During her talk she said, Germany has become one of the top choices for international students opting to pursue higher studies. Even if students are not taking a single class to learn the German language still they will succeed to earn their degree as they conduct many classes in the English language. International Students in Germany are allowed to work for either 90 full working days or 180 half working days so this is one of the main reason to pursue study in Germany.
In relation to having a large number of universities, Germany offers countless degree courses designed to suit everyone’s interests. As an industrialized country Germany has invested a lot in Engineering universities and today Engineering programs are particularly valued at German universities. However, there are a lot more study programs offered at these universities and in some of them, they are global leaders like medicine and pharmacy.
Based on official recordings in 2018, there are 429 public higher education institution functioning in Germany among which 106 are universities. Some of them have been consistently ranked among the world’s best universities. Students value these universities for the quality of education, hands-on experiences during their studies, opportunities to improve academically during and after studies and most importantly the safe and friendly environment.
Degree issued from a German university is a highly respected and valued qualification all over the world. As an indication of this, German graduates enjoy a high employability in the global job market.
In comparison with other countries, Germany is a safe country. In town or in the countryside, by day or by night, students can move around freely here. To apply for studies few universities are asking for GMAT otherwise IELTS exam is sufficient to get an admission. The talk ended with the questions and answer.
