He is absolutely right about the German language skills. This is not negotiable in Germany. You absolutely cannot expect to get ahead without a good knowledge, both active and passive, of the language no matter how highly qualified you are. This includes people with German PhDs. Living in Germany without any command of the language is like trying to swim without arms or legs. It just doesn't work.

Actually The language requirement is usually C1 for University programs

[@thebluescaptain]

C1 is usually for Ivy League. Less popular uni usually required B2 "only".

[@jnzseries6138]

@@thebluescaptain nope it’s actually mandatory to have C1 level in all universities. Just a quick Google search “what level of german is required to study in germany” will clarify that

[@BeMC10]

Even TUM only requires you to have B2. Some degrees at TUM even only require A2

[@ardaricus1566]

C1 is easy doe

[@maxyoko]

The general requirement is C1, but there are quite a few universities where you can get in with B2. For example, my university, the University of Applied Sciences Munich, and TU Rosenheim have degrees with B2 as the language requirement. Don't blindly trust the first search result on Google :)

I believe the option of learning German while studying your degree in English is optimal. After all, we've been learning and interacting with english all our lives so it's better to spend time learning the material as opposed to understanding German in it.

[@senizkurhan7144]

I'd like to open a parenthesis here. Even though I passed the C1 exam, I still feel like a caveman when I speak German. So I just speak English in the classes and all my professors are okay with this ( I study Data Science). And they allow me to write the exams in English since they see my effort. I also know that in CS faculty in KIT, students are also allowed to write their exams in English. So if you are still not comfortable with your German, just ask your professors if you can write the exam in English.

Wenn ich mich noch an den ersten Tag erinnere , wer hätte geglaubt, dass ich deutsch lernen werde. Am Anfang dachte ich , ich sollte nur auf Englisch studieren, danach sagte meine große Schwester mir , ich solle Deutsch lernen, wenn ich nicht an einer englischen Universität angenommen werde, könnte ich auf deutsch studieren. Als ich begann, deutsch zu erlernen, war es sehr sehr schwer, meine Noten im A1 Niveau waren schlecht. Manchmal fragte ich mich, ob ich mit meinem Deutschlernen aufhören sollte, dann fiel mir ein ,wenn ich jetzt aufhöre , werde ich den Eindruck haben, dass ich keine genüge Anstrengungen dafür gemacht habe. Jetzt beende ich schon mit dem C1.1 Niveau . " Niemals aufhören!!!!!!!!!!" ... Asta ( von Black Clover ) . Man kann schneller deutsch lernen als du denkst Max . Aber wir lernen nicht in der gleichen Geschwindigkeit , z.b ich habe 8≈9 Monaten genommen ,um auf von A1 bis C1.1 Niveau einzugehen. Die Leute sagen, es sei unrealistisch, aber ihrer Meinung nach kommt nicht infrage.

Series in German e.g Anime , Netflix etc ( in the beginning it will be difficult but as soon as you get it you get it ) . At the end of B1 start watching without subs 😤.

Please try out Nicos Weg by Deutsch Welle and see video by Zoe languages on how to learn german.This would help you get started.Ask your university if they can offer you deferral.Since you are considering german taught masters, it would be better you learn german till b2 and then start studying in German taught masters.I think there is also an option to take a gap year which you can utilise to learn german in between your english taught course .Do check with your university.
