Built for India

The degree travels. You don't have to.

Everything that usually makes a German degree expensive and slow to reach is the part we removed.

The whole point

Nothing to relocate. Nobody to convince at a consulate.

German UDS programmes are completed digitally, so the relocation apparatus never enters the picture. You stay with family, keep your network, and study in English on a German university calendar.

No APS certificateNo blocked accountNo student visaNo relocation flights

Tuition

0

Per year, non-profit. With no German rent to add, tuition is the main cost of the degree.

Student Affairs drop-ins land around 16:30–18:00 IST, and lectures are recorded either way.

Career

Keep earning while you study

Part-time mode is built in. No career break, no resignation letter, no gap on the CV.

For 4-year STEM graduates

Fast Track finishes a German Master's in one year
