Masters in Germany - Evaluating my options as a 1 year experience Software Engineer
My_qualifications -
Bachelors in Engineering (Computer Engineer) - 8.5 CGPA
No research experience - no involvement in extracurricular activities. I am 23 years old right now.
Got placed into a service based company and currently working for a bank client as a Data Engineer (tech - snowflake, azure)
I have been contemplating on my options what to do next -
-
Do my M.Tech from India and try and get into a product based company.
-
Do my M.Tech and a Phd from India to become a professor which I prefer more ( but it's gonna take a long time)
-
Go for a Masters in Germany and get a job in Germany (most preferred but seems difficult considering my financial situation)
I would like to hear from experienced people and people who have gone to germany for their studies or a job about the best path I can take.
I haven't started learning german properly other than having a German score of 11 and 120 day streak on Duolingo. If I finally decide on going, I will be taking classes and get the required language certification.
