I don't quite get your question. In...@Sridhark7<br />I don't quite get your question. Internships are usually a course requirement i.e. it depends more on the course you choose rather than the university itself. Internships are not always offered only in universities, one can also do internships in the industry (I did mine at Bosch).Sowmya Gopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801913358584597094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413207868821089033.post-67669861706115275682013-08-05T05:32:12.946+02:002013-08-05T05:32:12.946+02:00Thank you Sowmya!

A TU degree is considered a step above a FH degree but what you learn in FH is more practical than what you learn in TU. If you are more interested in research, then I would suggest opting for TU<br /><br />@anonymous<br />Even for the visa, its better to show that you know basic german or are smart enough to be able to learn the language. Visa is issued based on the assumption that you will be able to live and manage in Germany and German is a must for that. So I would suggest being prepared for basic german questions like 'where are you going in Germany' or 'which university/course have you applied for' etc.Sowmya Gopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801913358584597094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413207868821089033.post-83692133460456913512013-08-03T03:42:29.978+02:002013-08-03T03:42:29.978+02:00I browsed a lot and little confused about this poi...I browsed a lot and little confused about this point.

In my case is it enough with the English lang or do i need to learn German language. How could it impact on my visa approval chances.... <br /> In ur blog it is clear that to live or to work in germany one need to learn german lang.

Also try http://www.immobilienscout24.de (choose mietwohnungen in the opening page and then choose the state - Nordrhein-Westfalen, city - Dortmund etc.). Usually students stay in WG where 3 or 4 students share a big apt. These options are cheaper than individual apts.

If the international awards are recognised in Germany, then they would definitely be considered.<br /><br />3. Depends on other applicants who apply along with you i.e. how your application compares to others<br /><br />4. Depends on your previous batch mates at the university. If all students from India were poor, then that reflects on opinion they have of Indian education system. In case of engineering, the standard of Indian education is not considered good here. But I don't know how it is in Pharmaceuticals.<br /><br />I also think you learning German is very important because anything associated with health care demands that the person understands the local language.<br /><br />PS: its not 'coarse' but spelt 'course'Sowmya Gopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801913358584597094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413207868821089033.post-44601427489102365102012-05-19T11:02:00.102+02:002012-05-19T11:02:00.102+02:00Hi this is kushal.

Is a four year bachelor degree considered better than a three year one ?<br /><br />2. what is the weightage given to extra curricular activities ? (I have some awards of national and international level)<br /><br />3. I have an aggregate of 60 % in graduation but overall the profile is good with lots of conferences, abstract selections and some national level activities. Do I stand a chance ? <br /><br /><br />4.

That being said, comparing it to the US never works since most Germans can express themselves way better in German than in English - this does affect the teaching ability of some people. Also the culture in Germany is a lot different from that in India and the US...so keep an open mind and good luck !Sowmya Gopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801913358584597094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413207868821089033.post-42267351033211730232012-05-02T15:27:11.191+02:002012-05-02T15:27:11.191+02:00@anonymous

But i found a lot of negative reviews from students especially from outside countries . So can u please clarify on some of the facts :<br />1. How is the teaching quality especially comparing it in Indian context ? I dont expect spoon feeding but would like to have interesting class teaching unlike here .<br />2. How good are the professors ? <br />3. What about the research opportunities?<br />I have an internship from a very repuded university in US and it was really awesome , expecting a good(if not similar) experience from Germany . <br /> I know its been a long time since u have completed your studies but it would be nice if u can answer these queries with reference to your university .rajendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02397254109453440867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413207868821089033.post-73239012715990899582012-03-11T21:12:17.033+01:002012-03-11T21:12:17.033+01:00Hi sowmya....nice blog
