I wouldn't recommend studying in Germany with an English program. It can be difficult to find suitable opportunities, and the language barrier is often a challenge.

The university's program is solid, but the city is small, with very few social activities. This leads to a lack of student life, making it harder to form connections.

Studying here is not particularly challenging, and there's ample free time. However, the university's location in the countryside can feel a bit quiet and isolating, especially if you don't have friends nearby.
