My german was not very good but most of the people make an effort to understand you and help you in learning new words. Speaking English helped me a lot in certain situations at the very beguinning, but later I spoke only in german, although myy expressions were poor. Is a good method to learn

Careers
During my internship in Alby, which was offered by TUM, I gained valuable experience in project management and teamwork, which will be highly relevant in conducting market research in the field of Lightning Network. As an emerging technology that aims to address Bitcoin's scalability issues, conducting market research will enable businesses and investors to gain insights into user adoption rates, market trends, and the competitive landscape. This research will be crucial in informing strategic decisions regarding product development and market positioning. My internship provided me with the foundation to apply these skills in the context of market research, and inspired me to pursue a career in the field.

“University of excellence”
Thea K
Germany, Undergraduate
Informatics, 2020
Overall
I study computer science, so my view is based on the informatics department.
TUM is known as one of the best universities world wide for informatics which I can only confirm. The level of studies and the requirements are very high, you notice that they strive towards challenging their students. However, I like that TUM is not bragging about it, there is little advertisement (such as some American universities do) and also professors, tutors etc are quite neutral. The campus (informatics/mathematics building Garching) is modern with great architecture, to me it feels even futuristic.

Pros
High level of education, professors are one of the best world wide in their subject
Cons
students need to be very independent, the campus for informatics, physics, mathematics etc is quite far away from the city
