Yes in Germany and some other European countries we call CS Informatics. Unfortunately all of the classes are at the campus in Garching. However the majority of the lectures are recorded or even live streamed so you don't have to go there every single time.

[@bibimbab9095]

Was ist so besonders bei dem Informatik Studium an der TUM? Ich meine im Vergleich zu den anderen Universitäten in Deutschland. Alle kochen auch nur mit Wasser, oder?

[@developandplay]

Also was den Inhalt des Studiums angeht denke ich sind die Unterschiede eher gering. Andere kleinere Universitäten haben vielleicht sogar noch eine bessere Betreuung der Studenten. Die TUM hat allerdings einen sehr guten Ruf im Ausland, was es erleichtert an guten anderen Unis ein Auslandssemester oder Forschung zu machen. Zudem gibt es in München sehr viele Technologieunternehmen und Startups, sodass es deutlich einfacher ist als in anderen Städten Praktika und Werkstudentenstellen zu finden. Auf der anderen Seite ist es ohne einen Nebenjob auch sehr teuer in München. Außerdem gibt es an der TUM sehr viele Studenteninitiativen, Hackathons, Vorträge, Messen und Konferenzen. Mir persönlich haben insbesondere das Umfeld in München und auch die guten Verbindungen ins Ausland besonderes viel geholfen.

[@developandplay]

I think for your Bachelors it shouldn't be a big factor. Quite a few people never have done anything with CS at that point. Just make sure to get good grades in high school and get a good level of German skills. Oh and I would check if your high school diploma is officially recognized in Germany. Otherwise you might need to go to Studienkolleg first.😌 I hope that helps feel free to ask more questions...

Hii! Ive been doing more research into universities in Germany and I love the course they have to offer in this one. Is getting into TUM very competitive?

[@jiya2027]

Also Do you by any chance know if I have to take the IELTS or some kind of college entrance exam if I graduated from a high school in america to apply for a bachelor's program in this university?

[@jiya2027]

Sorry for the lot of questions but also when do you think I should start applying for universities?(I graduate high school in May of 2022)

[@developandplay]

Well it is competitive to an extent but most programs don't have a fixed number of spots. So generally the idea is that you don't need to be the best student but a good student in high school. Some programs even have interviews in case you don't have the grades but can show your interest in the subject.

[@developandplay]

For the Bachelors programs the admissions usually close by mid July (this year they extended it to end of July). Some programs that are not as competitive (e.g. physics) have admissions up to mid September. Make sure to check the TUM website for the program you are interested in. For all of the programs you have to get an official translation of your transcript to German. Also you need to make sure your high school diploma is considered equal to the German one. If I remember correctly this is true for the US but make sure to check that. For the programs that are taught in German (unfortunately most of them for undergrad) you also need to hand in a proof of German proficiency. Apart from that you just need your regular things like motivation letter and resume. Most programs don't require any letters of recommendation for undergrad. Feel free to ask more questions! I hope you get into the program you really like.

[@developandplay]

Oh I misread this as May of 2021...If you graduate in 2022 I would consider learning German because it will give you more flexibility in terms of subjects and universities. It might be intense but I know a few friends that got the required level within a year. Of course once you enter university here it might still be tough but after about another year you will feel just like any other student.

People from countries with lower education standards have to go to a one year college first...For Masters application people from tum get a big advantage if they stay so it will also be easier.

@@l.1244 Also bei Microsoft und Amazon kann man sich direkt für München bewerben. Bei Google und Facebook nur europaweit. Ich würde dir im empfehlen dich weltweit zu bewerben, wenn du Interesse hast im Ausland zu arbeiten. Allerdings kann es bei nicht EU Ländern schwierig (USA) oder sogar unmöglich (China) mit dem Visum sein.

@@developandplay Hast du dich auf explizit ausgeschriebene Praktikas beworben oder hast du auch einfach mal z.B. die Münchner Offices angeschrieben und nach einer passenden Stelle gefragt? Weil ich im Münchner Raum leider selten explizit ausgeschriebene Stellen für Praktikas finde...

[@developandplay]

Habe mich nur auf explizit ausgeschriebene Stellen beworben. Das funktioniert allerdings nur, wenn du bereits ein bisschen Erfahrung hast. Also Praktika oder private Projekte. Alternativ kannst du es natürlich auch über netzwerken probieren. Ich persönlich hatte dafür allerdings nicht die passenden Kontakte.

Machst Du ein duales Studium? Sind die Lehrgänge immer auf Deutsch? Ich habe einen Plan, Informatik zu studieren und ich weiß eigentlich nicht, ob ich doch noch meine Deutschkentnisse verbessern soll oder ob ich mich jetzt direkt anmelden. Übrigens bin ich einen Ausländer, aber ich hab schon die B2 Zertifikat. (Weiß auch nicht, ob hier die C1 Zertifikat erforderlich ist)

[@developandplay]

Nein ich mache ein normales Studium. An der TUM ist der Bachelor Informatik in München auf Deutsch. Es gibt auch in Heilbronn einen Englischen Studiengang. Wenn du bereits B2 Deutsch kannst dann würde ich dir empfehlen in München zu studieren. Es wird anfangs schwieriger sein, aber es hilft dir in der Zukunft in Deutschland...

[@tmakombe]

Hello... is it recommended to have a Macbook or Windows at TUM for Informatik

[@developandplay]

It doesn't matter to be honest. Most courses support all three platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux). Otherwise they will provide you with a virtual machine image. Also you will get access to Linux servers at the university. So just use what you are most comfortable with.

Hi, pls clear a confusion 4 me. Inside the classroom the Lecturer is given in English language or in German language ?

Kannst mir noch die verwendete Musik verraten?

Are there places to plug in your laptop,where the lectures take place

[@developandplay]

The computer science lecture halls have one plug per seat. Some other lecture halls don't. I would recommend getting a laptop with long battery life. At least once in person lectures start again.

Its a great university. Can you please tell me how important the knowledge of german language skills is for international students to get admission here?

[@developandplay]

It depends on your subject. Some are tought in German so you need a high proficiency. Some are taught in English so it's not strictly necessary but recommended to learn German.

Hello! Can you tell me when it was shot? I heard all classes this summer semester is being held online? I got into MS in Informatik at TUM and am going to join this WiSe, but I think most classes will be online.

I recorded the video one year ago. Hope we can all return to our courses in Fall.

[@TUMunich]

Hey. From what I heard they are going to hold as many classes as possible in person. BUT if you don’t have a visa they said that international students won’t get new visas until this whole pandemic thing clears up so depending on that it is possible that you might end up having to take classes online.

[@developandplay]

@@TUMunich Yes the current stance is that next semester will start online unfortunately. That being said it also means less hassle for international students...

That was a nice video! I had a question, If I don't know German can I come to Germany and learn German and then join TUM if I satisfy other criterias?I am an Indian btw. I'd be really glad for your help!

[@developandplay]

Yes you can definitely do that. I don't know how old you currently are but there are multiple options. If you are still in school I would recommend learning some German on the side or going to a German school if possible. If you are soon to be done then you could either try to go to Studienkolleg for one year or do an apprenticeship for 2-3 years and then start your degree. It all depends on your age, how good your German is and how quickly you want to start university!

[@ankitprajapati5585]

@@developandplay Thank you for your responding! I just checked the preparatory study at the studienkolleg www.tum.de/en/studies/application/preparatory-study-at-the-studienkolleg/ , it says that we need to have at least level B2 german qualification and this is really confusing me. Maybe I am interpreting it wrong, so can you guide me on how and where to apply for what you've told earlier. I am really sorry for troubling you so much and Thank you tons for helping me out!

[@developandplay]

@@ankitprajapati5585 Yes all of the above require some level of German that's why I said it depends on how much time you have left until graduation. Just for reference getting to B2 can require somewhere between 1 to 3 years of studying depending on how much time you dedicate to it. Studienkolleg might not even be necessary for you if your grades are really good. Additionally some German universities offer English Bachelor programs. If you start an apprenticeship you will have a lower German requirement. But it takes about 2-3 years to finish. Of course going to a German high school in India would probably be your best and quickest option if that's possible. But don't feel like you can't learn German yourself. A few friends did that and it worked out really well for them.
