Course recommendations
The course at Duisburg is an excellent mix of Computer science knowledge that one needs and Telecommunication technology.My area of specialization is Communication engineering and hence the course pretty much ideal for me as it gives me a deep insight into the present day and the future of the entire world.The Uni also works in close association with the Fraunhofer institute here in Duisburg:it is here that I work and have gained a lot of experience.

Personal comments
The cleaness was not so good at the beginning but after a better organisation I could pass really a wonderful time. I had my own room and I shared common spaces (kitchen, bathroom) with other people. It was the right compromise. The location was perfect, 5 minutes far from the University by foot.

I wish I had known...
Nothing really.I would suggest that one should look upon it as a challenge.Like is quite cool here.OKay,one might complain about the weather here in Germany.But that can always be complemented by travelling a little bit to the South of Europe.

Personal spending habits
At home I was staying with my parents and hence I need to shell out all the cash here.But on the other hand it a great feeling of being independent and supporting your self.One must encash on this opportunity here in Germany that Students can support themselves completely on their own.

Personal comments
When you live in an environment where your mother tongue doesn't help you, you need to learn to communicate with other people. So, I think this is a good way to learn a language, or to verify and experiment your knowledge.
