What is the placement scenario and return on investment after studying abroad in Germany for a Master's?
Studying abroad in Germany offers strong placement prospects and a favorable return on investment (ROI), especially for fields like Business Administration.
- Placement rate: Around 55% - 65% of international Master’s graduates in Business Administration find jobs in Germany within six months of graduation.
- ROI: With low or no tuition fees and reasonable living costs, total expenses for a two-year Master’s can be €22,000 - €25,000. Typical starting salaries are €45,000 - €55,000/year, so most graduates recover their investment within 2 - 3 years.
Language proficiency (at least B2 in German) and gaining practical experience during your studies can further improve your job prospects and ROI.
