Questions for german members about university
« on: Wed, 23 September 2015, 20:00:11 »
Hey, I'm a german student in the US and I'm currently looking at university in germany, and I thought I'd pick the brains of some german geekhackers. I'd like to know, what universities are considered "good" for IT/CS degrees? As a non-german I'm just a bit lost, as it's hard to know just from looking at websites what kind of reputation a school has among people who actually live in the country.

Please note that this ranking is made by a popular magazine in germany similar to the 'Times'.
Just select the desired degree and the type of university (so 'official' university or technical university. The technical does not automatically mean its better btw.)

Hope this helps!

Interestingly, the first part of the sentence in the OP reads "I'm a german student in the US"; but, in its last part reads "As a non-german". I am confused.

Read it another time, see if you can figure it out. German student doesn't mean what you think it does.

Never mind, just trying to make sense out of your question; you got a nice reference already. By the way, I am European.

School is hard, EVERYWHERE else but the USA.
Yes, I get that sense. Especially because, coming from an American school, I'll be almost two years behind everyone else in every subject except math and english.
