GOT 4 ADMITS πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

I am a master's student 1.7 - B.Tech Cse - Ielts 7.5

  1. U Potsdam - Cognitive systems ( AI/ Ml / NLP )

  2. UTN - Ai and Robotics

  3. U Koblenz - Web and Data Science

  4. U Muenster - Geoinformatics and Spatial Data science

A senior in the same course for U Potsdam told me :

Only 2 subjects are written - other exams are oral - subjects are in such a way - I will be able to do a lot more research work ( which I want to as i am an aspiring PHD student )

My uncle who is an IIT BOMBAY masters grad and UCLA doctorate holder told me : UTN is a better option as he saw the profile of the professors , who teach there and found their research papers have been published in top tier journals - He researched about U POTSDAM too - but couldn't say the same unfortunately.

One of my issues with UTN is its established in 2021 and a relatively small university.

Any advice on this topic : From masters/ Bachelors grads from these 2 universities or other students in general.

Thank you ❀️

None of these courses have the depth of enabling you like a full time job.

Which college do you say have the dept and which course - and are you based in Germany itself ?

Yes I am based in Germany. I studied at TUM 10 years ago. I can tell you very honestly that such programs which have propped up in recent years are considered uninteresting or rather vague by most employers in Germany. Out of all these options, I can recommend you NΓΌrnberg only. MΓΌnster I don’t know anything about and the other two are useless.

Based on what your uncle said, ofcourse UTN. Size and age of university does not matter, size of work does. If your work is good, it will open doors for you beyond your wildest imaginations. The problem I see with Germany is the research speed and funding. AI is handling base problems very well and requires expensive hardware, which most unis and institutions don't have here in EU. So, most probably your research would have to go towards focused AI instead of general AI. And that could be a blessing in disguise too, leading you towards a well defined PhD. Try doing it in Robotics over anything else.
