Anonymous rated 5 out of 5 stars
Hochschule Esslingen is one of the best universities in Germany. To be very specific, my course contents gave me a detailed knowledge of what the industry needs today along with the concepts important for future technology. Being an international student, it was really helpful for me to have supporting professors and the staff at International office.

The way the institution managed to continue with the Master’s programs via Webex was exceptional. We were able to attend all Laboratories (face-to-face) and absolutely all the content reviewed in the lectures was available on a platform (Moodle).
