What are the benefits of studying at a public university in Germany, especially regarding tuition fees and work opportunities for a Bachelor's/Master's?
Studying at a public university in Germany offers major benefits, especially for tuition fees and work opportunities.
- Low or no tuition fees: Most public universities charge little to no tuition for Bachelor's and consecutive Master's programs, even for international students. You typically pay only a semester fee of €150 - €350 for administration and student services.
- Affordable living costs: Monthly living expenses usually range from €850 - €1,200, depending on the city.
- Post-study work visa: Graduates can stay in Germany for up to 18 months after finishing their degree to look for work, making it easier to gain international experience.
This combination of low costs and strong career prospects makes German public universities a popular choice for international students.
