        TH Rosenheim has a very organized environment. Every room and every staff is organized and educated to any need, being able to help when needed. Moreover, every professor has many foreign contacts and collaborations. This makes the universities of Bavaria excellent for cultural meeting points and attracting foreign students who want to learn. (…) it was the best beautiful experience of my life.

        Akaseng Frankline Amin from Cameroon - Master's in Wood Technology

        I believe what makes TH Rosenheim so successful is its unique ability to keep students totally engaged and motivated. I like the warm environment at the campus and the dormitory and the free German language class schedule complements my commitments as a working student. I also enjoy the multi-culture environment. I am sure to realize my dream of being a CEO and being a bridge between the EU and AFRICA with regard to technology. As a Master's student in wood technology, the course prepares me for the real world. Because TH Rosenheim brings the real world to you. In other words, most lecturers come from big industries giving them the wisdom to tell me the inside and outside of the real world. I can say that the lecturers and course modules are one of the best I have ever encountered. Everything is up to my expectation
