TU IL campus
A rural campus is the best choice for those who enjoy outdoor activities. TU IL has exactly this type of campus. It is located away from the city, creating conditions for greater student communication and a close-knit community. The university has a library where students can do their homework, write scientific papers or just read interesting books. TU IL accepts students for international exchange programs. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in intercultural communication for both international and local students.
It is possible to stay in Germany for an additional 18 months after graduation. To do this, you need to apply for a graduate visa, which allows you to work without providing an offer from an employer. Look for more immigration options in our article.
