Universität Karlsruhe

The KIT is without a doubt the top choice (along with TUM) for studying computer science in Germany. The courses are technical and give a very good overview over the topics and the professors are precise and professional. It's fair to say that I did not have a single professor that left a negative impression on me. There is an big focus on a strong mathematical foundation, something that not everyone likes and yet is very helpfull for developing an abstract and analytical way of thinking. There are many classes give programming assignments, so there is also a lot of hands-on practical experience to be had, something many other universities neglect. The only downside is that, because the university is very technical, there is a noticable lack of women on the campus and in the classes.
