Poor quality of provided education

Studied in WWU Münster in IS. The education is far from a practical field, the courses are too theoretical and far from a real business perspective. Most of the lectures are outdated and boring. Professors and Ph.ds stress mostly about how do you write the exposé, which synonyms do you use but don't give any clue about how your thesis can be applied in the real world. So, be prepared for constant iterations of changing your master thesis with different wording. If you want to finish your studies in 2 years, prepare yourself for studying only. In my humble opinion, the university is over ranked and it's too conservative. Won't recommend to internationals or germans with head on their shoulders. Also, if you want to get your degree, prepare to wait for almost 2 months. The university is so "progressive", that they will provide you a piece of paper within 2 months, not earlier (already advise them to use docusign or similar software, but they are too lazy and lame).... If you want to get a student wohnheim room - prepare to spend a lot of time in "Studierendenwerk", where they don't want to give good apartments/rooms in the first meet. They even won't speak English with you.
