TUM's MSc Informatics is a flagship English-taught computer science master's. Unlike its own tuition-free bachelor's degrees, this programme now charges non-EU students a tuition fee — TUM was the first Bavarian university to reintroduce non-EU fees.

DEQAR lookup for this institution has not been run yet.
Registration with EQAR is voluntary. An institution’s absence from DEQAR does not by itself mean it is unaccredited — a “not yet checked” badge means exactly that, never a warning.

Student residence permits issued in Germany
Eurostat migr_resedu ingestion for Germany is not built yet.
No approval rate is published for any European country. Eurostat's migr_resedu dataset reports permits issued by citizenship, not applications refused — there is no denominator, so no approval or rejection percentage exists in the source data. When this section goes live it will show volume and trend for your nationality only.
for €6,000/semester (€12,000/year) for non-EU/third-country students newly enrolling from Winter Semester 2024/25 onward, under Bavaria's 2023 Higher Education Innovation Act.
Not all TUM master's programmes charge this fee — some (e.g. Bioinformatics, Software Engineering) remain fee-exempt, so this figure applies to Informatics specifically, not TUM as a whole. You're also exempt if you already completed a prior degree at a German university.

One of Germany's most expensive cities to rent in — this drives most of the gap versus other German university towns.
This is a rough planning ballpark, not a sourced, verified figure like the tuition above — there is no single official database for per-city student living costs. Your actual spending depends heavily on housing choice, lifestyle, and exchange-rate movement. Adjust it yourself in the full cost calculator →

Non-EU students may take up paid work for up to 120 full days or 240 half-days per calendar year without separate permission from the Foreigners' Authority. Germany measures this in days per year, not hours per week — working more requires approval.
