Is it a good plan to do my master's in Germany and stay there afterward?
Yes, pursuing your master's in Germany and staying afterward is a strong plan, especially with your background in Electronics and Communication Engineering and work experience.
- Post-study work visa: After graduation, you can apply for an 18-month residence permit to seek jobs related to your field.
- Pathway to permanent residency: Once employed in a relevant role, you can move to a work permit or EU Blue Card, and may qualify for permanent residency after two years of employment.
- Strong job market: Germany's engineering and technology sectors offer good opportunities for skilled professionals.
However, German language skills are often important for daily life and work, and admissions can be competitive. Living costs also vary by city and should be budgeted for.
