My daughter wants to do MS in Cyber Security after her B.Tech. and having around 3 years of working experience in IT field with an International Bank. Please suggest the best university in US or Germany for this course along with expected cost.

Ans: Hello,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am glad to know that your son is currently in the third year of his Bachelor’s of Technology in Computer Science Engineering degree and aspires to pursue his Master's in Cyber Security in Germany. As an answer to your query, I would like to tell you that there are a number of German universities viz., the University of Stuttgart, Ruhr University Bochum, Technical University of Munich (TUM), and University of Passau, that are renowned for the Cyber Security programs they offer. Nevertheless, your son will need to consider his own choices, the quality of the program he wishes to apply to, as well as his professional objectives when deciding on a university in Germany to pursue his Master's in Cyber Security. To answer your question as to whether your son should opt for a Technical University or an Applied Science University, I would like to tell you that programs in Cyber Security are offered by both these types of universities. However, remember that relatively more hands-on, industry-focused training is imparted by Applied Science Universities as opposed to Technical Universities that focus more on research. When deciding, I would recommend that your son takes into account his educational as well as his professional objectives.

Concerning your query as to whether GRE, TOEFL and German Language certification is necessary, I would suggest that you look into the admission prerequisites for each individual university your son is considering. Universities often require students to submit their TOEFL and GRE test scores, nevertheless, English language competency tests viz., the IELTS are also favored by certain universities. Although holding a German language certification is not a necessity, possessing a basic understanding of the language can prove advantageous for daily living in the country. In order for your son to improve his chances of getting admitted, I recommend that he investigates the admission criteria for each university he is interested in, as well as begins his exam preparation.

To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that excellent cyber security programs for MS students are offered by both, Germany and the USA, each with its unique advantages. Germany is well-known for its strong engineering and technology education system, which is generally less expensive than in the USA. Moreover, I would also like to tell you that Germany’s emphasis on apprenticeship programs and partnerships with industry leaders can offer invaluable practical experience. Nevertheless, the USA is home to a number of renowned universities with state-of-the-art research facilities and a booming technology sector, in turn, offering a wealth of networking and internship possibilities. With regards to Permanent Residency (PR), I would like to let you know that the immigration laws and procedures for both the countries are different, and thus, prior to making a decision, I would suggest that you investigate and take into account variables viz., the demand for jobs in the market, prerequisites for immigration, as well as individual preferences.
