Hey everyone!

I'm an international student from India, and TUHH is one of my top choices for an M.Sc. in Computer Science.

Now, the million-euro question... 💶

Do international students actually get software jobs in and around Hamburg, or do we all end up surviving on coffee and hope? 😅

I'd love to hear from people who studied at TUHH (or any university in Hamburg).

A few things I'm curious about:

How's the software/IT job market in Hamburg?

Is getting internships or working student jobs realistic?

After graduation, how hard is it to land a full-time software engineering job?

How important is German? Can English-only graduates still find decent opportunities?

Did you stay in Hamburg, or did you move to another city for work?

Please share your honest experiences—the good, the bad, and the "I sent 300 applications" stories. 😄

I'm trying to figure out whether I'll be writing code after graduation... or just refreshing LinkedIn every five minutes. 😂

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I'm an international applicant for a Master's program at TUHH.

My application status has changed to "Valid", and I understand that the admission decision will now be made after the manual academic evaluation.

If you've studied at TUHH or have already gone through this process, I'd really appreciate your help.

- How long did it take to receive your final decision after the status became "Valid"?

- Were you eventually admitted or rejected?

- Does getting a "Valid" status mean you have a good chance of admission, or does it simply mean your documents passed the initial check?

- How competitive is the manual evaluation stage for international applicants?

I'd love to hear about your experience, especially if you applied for Computer Science or another engineering-related Master's program.

Thanks in advance!
