Germany is an excellent choice for your master's studies, especially given your 48 months of work experience. Public universities in Germany typically offer tuition-free education, with only a nominal semester fee, making it highly cost-effective.
You will also benefit from an 18-month post-study residence permit, which allows you to seek employment in your field after graduation. Your work experience is particularly valuable for non-consecutive master's programs like MBAs or specialized management degrees, where practical experience is a key admission factor.
Other countries such as the UK, Canada, and Australia offer quality education and post-study work visas (PSW), but usually at higher tuition and living costs. Given your background and financial considerations, Germany stands out for education quality, affordability, and strong career prospects.
