In my field of electrical engineering KIT is a perfect university to study at. They provide a large field of directions to specialize in, cooperations with companies as well as the tightly connected research facility in the north of Karlsruhe. A lot of international students and many student groups allow a broad student’s life where everyone can find a way to live out his or her passions. KIT is located in the southwestern town of Karlsruhe, which is of a good size for students, has interesting bars and some clubs. Furthermore Karlsruhe is a bicycle town, which means that you can reach every part of the city by bike. Highly recommendable.
