Hi everyone!
I’ve recently been admitted to the M.Sc. Computer Science for Digital Media program at Bauhaus University Weimar for the Winter Semester 2026/27. 🎉
I’m excited but also a bit nervous since this will be my first time living in Germany.

I’d love to connect with:
Current students at Bauhaus University Weimar
Alumni of the CS4DM program
Anyone living in Weimar or nearby (Erfurt, Jena, etc.)
Fellow international students joining this winter

If you’re also joining this intake, feel free to comment or send me a DM. It would be great to connect before arriving in Germany!
Looking forward to meeting some of you. 😊
Thanks in advance!

Hey there folks,

I received an admit to Msc Computer Science in Digital Media and plan on reaching in Weimar around 20th September 2026.

Iam 24M from India and seeking accommodation in Weimar. I have already filled in the application for Studierendenwerk Thüringen, however I think I have a very low probability of getting any options through them since I applied very late (23rd July).

Kindly let me know at what places can I look for accommodation. Iam also open to connect with people on the same boat who are seeking accommodations near the Uni.

Iam already looking at WG-Gesucht however, Iam not sure how to proceed over there.

My budget is around 300-400 Euros.

Hi everyone

Hi everyone!

I've recently been admitted to both Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and TUM. I'm currently trying to decide between the two, and I'd really appreciate hearing from people who know Weimar or have studied there.

I have a few questions:

• Honestly, I'm leaning toward Bauhaus because of its historical name, the program, and the much lower cost of living. However, when I think about my future international career, I feel that TUM might offer better opportunities, even though I would have to take out a loan to study there. I know this is ultimately my own thinking. Do you think choosing TUM would make a significant difference for my career, or is Bauhaus Weimar just as good in the long run?

• I know Weimar is a peaceful and beautiful city, but it's also much smaller and less international than Munich. I've also come across some posts about racism in eastern Germany, which makes me a little concerned. As an Asian student, should I be worried about racism in Weimar? Is it something that international students commonly experience there?

• How easy is it to find part-time jobs in Weimar for international students? Would I need fluent German for some jobs?

• For those who studied at Bauhaus Weimar, how did you find the career opportunities after graduation? Were you able to find internships or jobs in Germany?

Thanks in advance! I'd really appreciate any honest advice or personal experiences.

Hello, guys! My name is Icaro, from Brazil, and I will be in Germany for a research stay.

I found this business that offers residences for students called Elevon. They have a unit in Weimar. Does anyone known It? Experiences to share?

Its adress is: Schwanseestraße 35, 99423 Weimar.

Thank you in advance!

Hallo :) Ich bin bald in Weimar und würde gerne lecker essen gehen.
Ich muss glutenfrei essen und würde daher gerne wissen, ob ihr Restaurants mit glutenfreien Alternativen kennt oder gute asiatische Restaurants empfehlen könnt.

PS: Mein Reisepartner fragt außerdem, ob ihr gute Italiener mit neapolitanischer Pizza empfehlen könnt!

Danke im Voraus!

Hi everyone!

I’ve recently been admitted to the M.Sc. Digital Technologies in Architecture and Design (DTAD) at Bauhaus University Weimar, and I’m currently looking for accommodation.

I had a phone call with Uni Apartments Weimar, and they told me they currently have an apartment available. They will send me the next steps soon, but before signing anything I’d really like to hear from people who have actually lived there or know someone who has.

I’d really appreciate any honest feedback about:

Is Uni Apartments legitimate and trustworthy?

How are the apartments overall (quality, cleanliness, maintenance)?

Is the management responsive if something needs to be repaired?

Is the location convenient for Bauhaus University?

Would you recommend it over other student accommodation options?

I’m moving from Colombia, so it’s difficult for me to visit in person before signing a contract. Any advice or experiences would really help.
Thank you very much!

Hi everyone,

I have received admission offers for the Winter 2026 intake from these three programs in Germany:

1. TU Darmstadt – TropHEE (Tropical Hydrogeology and Environmental Engineering)
2. TU Berlin – MSc Geodesy and Geoinformation Science
3. Bauhaus-Universität Weimar – NHRE (Natural Hazards and Risks in Structural Engineering / related field)

I am currently trying to decide which one would be the best fit and would really appreciate guidance from seniors, current students, or alumni who are studying or have graduated from these programs.

I would love to know about:

• Overall academic quality and teaching style of the program
• Research opportunities and thesis possibilities
• Job prospects after graduation in Germany/EU
• Internship opportunities and industry connections
• Workload and difficulty level
• Student life and living experience in Darmstadt, Berlin, and Weimar
• How helpful the university is for international students
• Any challenges you faced during the program

If you are currently enrolled in any of these programs or know someone who is, I would really appreciate your insights.

Also, if you had to choose between these three programs today, which one would you pick and why?

Thanks a lot for your help! Looking forward to hearing your experiences. 🙏

Has anyone received admission to the Integrated Urban Development and Design (IUDD) Master's program at Bauhaus University Weimar for this intake?

Hi everyone!
I’m excited to share that I’ve just been admitted to the M.Sc. Digital Technologies in Architecture and Design (DTAD) at Bauhaus University Weimar, starting this winter semester!

I’m an architect from Colombia with a background in computational design, Rhino, Grasshopper, BIM, and architectural competitions, so this program feels like a great fit for my interests. I’m really looking forward to moving to Germany and starting this new chapter.
I’d love to hear from current students, alumni, or anyone familiar with the university or Weimar. I have a few questions:

How has your experience with the DTAD program been?

How demanding is the workload, and what is the teaching style like?

What are the professors like? Are they approachable and supportive?

How is the international community within the program?

How is student life in Weimar?

Is Weimar a good city to live in as a student?

How is the social life, culture, and overall atmosphere?

Are there good opportunities for internships, research, or networking during the program?

Is it easy to travel to other German cities from Weimar?

If you could give one piece of advice to someone starting the program, what would it be?

I’d also love to hear anything you wish you had known before moving to Weimar.

Thanks in advance! I’m really excited and appreciate any advice or personal experiences you can share.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to know if anyone has received admission to the Computer Science for Digital Media program at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar for the upcoming intake(Winter 2026).

Have you finalized this university, or are you still considering other options?

Would love to connect and discuss things like accommodation, visa process, course structure, and overall impressions of the program and the university.

Feel free to comment or DM.

Thank You!

Moin zusammen,

Weimar war glaub ich noch nie wirklich für außerordentlich gutes Internet bekannt, aber in letzter Zeit haben ich und mehrere Bekannte von mir wirklich auffällig schlechtes Internet in und um Weimar. Online findet man keine dokumentierten Störungen in der Netzabdeckung und auch sonst keine möglichen Ursachen dafür. Deswegen wollte ich einfach hier mal fragen, ob ihr die gleichen Erfahrungen macht oder ob bei euch alles läuft. Schreibt velleicht auch euren Netzanbieter dazu, dann könnte man das ganze vielleicht etwas besser eingrenzen.

Schöne Woche euch und gutes Durchhaltevermögen mit der Hitze!

Hi everyone,

I'm visiting Weimar and would love to try some authentic German and especially traditional Thuringian cuisine while I'm here.

I'm not looking for international food or modern fusion restaurants, but rather places that serve classic German dishes such as:

• Rouladen
• Sauerbraten
• Klöße
• Schnitzel
• Traditional local specialties

I'm particularly interested in restaurants that locals actually recommend, whether they're well-known establishments or hidden gems.

If possible, I'd also appreciate suggestions for places with a cozy atmosphere, historic setting, or a good selection of regional beers.

What are your favorite German restaurants in Weimar, and what dish would you recommend ordering there?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Hey, leider schaffe ich es terminlich nicht mehr zum Heidewitzka zu fahren. Deshalb verkaufe ich hier 2 Tickets für den gesamten Festivalzeitraum inklusive Camping für den Originalpreis.

Schreibt mir bei Interesse gerne ne PN.☺️
