I have a BSc in Mathematics and Statistics, a year of post-graduation experience, and a current role as a quantitative researcher. I’m considering leaving my job to pursue a Master’s in Financial and Insurance Mathematics at LMU in Germany.
I’m looking for information on job prospects, cost of living, social life, and potential challenges like racism in Germany to help me decide. Is the move worth the risk?
Yeah, but think about the career boost! Germany’s finance industry is huge, especially in Munich. LMU has a solid reputation, so job prospects after graduation should be pretty good.
True, but don’t forget about the costs. Tuition might be low, but living in Munich can be expensive. Have you looked into the cost of living, like rent, food, and transportation?
And what about the social life? Is it easy to make friends in Germany? I’ve heard it can be tough to break into social circles, especially as an international student.
I know a few people who studied in Germany. They said it takes effort, but it’s definitely possible to build a good social life. Joining university clubs, attending events, and connecting with other international students can help.
