Yes, studying in Germany can strongly boost your job prospects.

- Part-time work: International students can work up to 140 full days or 280 half days per year (subject to change), gaining experience and supporting living costs.
- Internships: Many programs include internships, helping you build skills and professional networks.
- Post-study work: After graduation, you can apply for an 18-month job search visa to find work related to your field.
- High demand: Sectors like engineering, IT, healthcare, and business have strong demand for skilled graduates.
- Language: Knowing German improves your chances, though many companies also use English.

Visa rules and job market needs are subject to change. If you want tailored guidance for your course or background, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
