Personal comments:
English was the medium of instruction for our Master program. We Indians are more or less fluent in English and hence this University can be great place to study. The German language is needed for day to day life in and around the city.

Personal comments:
Before I had not had much German at all, and my speaking skills were not very advanced. Although the instruction was in German I was still with many Americans during the program. Although I acquired an everyday basic knowledge of German, I was disappointed that I did not gain more of an understanding.
