Ruhr University of Bochum (reviews)

I finished my master’s degree as wll as my PhD at the RUB. I can only share my experience pursuant to the faculty of Chemistry, but overall it was a pleasure to study there. Beside the lectures, there are lot of offers for students as well as speciallized workshops for the PhD program. Nevertheless, it would have been beneficial to have a little bit more of online content, especially for the lectures since I had a long way to travel to the RUB.

The Ruhr University of Bochum (RUB) is often said to be one of the ugliest universities in Germany. I’ve studied there for two semesters already but I can tell you, that is the charm of Ruhr University Bochum. Yes, you will see one block-like-building next to the other but doesn’t this mass of grey represent a part of ‘Ruhrpott’ culture in Germany? Not to mention, the university also has green spots and even its own Chinese garden. So if appearance doesn’t matter much to you, and you value good education and nice professors, this university is suitable. It offers a wide range of programmes. My master’s degree for example gives me a lot of freedom in which courses I want to take, thus giving me the ability to go after my interests. One downside to the RUB, however, is that some professors need a long time to hand in grades. So sometimes you’ll have to write their secritary etc. Overall I had a good experience at RUB so far though.

The Ruhr University of Bochum in western Germany is one of the best and biggest universities of Europe. The city is beautiful and study area is amazing. You don’t need to pay to go to the university.
