“As a part of Excellence Universities in Germany, TUD and its entire system support the students completely to enhance both, academic and self-development. This is a great provision for a better future and career. Living in Dresden provides many opportunities to wander and enjoy a body-soul-mind tour either for the beauty of the natural scene or cultural stories. It’s one of the most romantic cities in Germany where people can take pleasure in some iconic venues like the Frauenkirche, Sächsische Schweiz or Pillnitz Schloss. In addition, many interesting intercultural programmes can be easily visited to enrich our insight and to feel delighted of being a part of diversity. In terms of living costs and accommodation, those are very pleasant and flexible for students. I would say, Dresden embraces me warmly to become a part of it at any time.”
