Tell us about yourself and what inspired you to study Electrical Engineering with TUM Asia.<\/strong><\/p>

Hello! My name is Yulong. I decided to pursue my undergraduate studies in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology with TUM Asia as I have always been interested in Germany technology. I was most intrigued by the fact that I would be able to complete my Bachelor thesis in Germany. It is a unique learning experience that not many other schools can offer.<\/span><\/p>

How was your experience with applying for the DAAD Scholarships?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

I got to know about the DAAD scholarships from my classmate. This was prior to heading to Germany for my Overseas Immersion Programme (OIP) during the final year of my Bachelor studies. The application process was very smooth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

With the help the administration office, all we had to do was to submit the supporting documents required from us. The documents required for the submission were the application form, our transcripts, and a motivation letter. For myself, it took me one to two weeks to prepare all these documents for submission.<\/span><\/p>

How does receiving the scholarship impact you?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

The DAAD scholarship allowed me to have an ease of mind in terms of my finances. It allows me to focus more on the completion of my Bachelor Thesis without feeling worried about my expenses in Germany.<\/span><\/p>

What advice do you have for students aiming for the scholarship?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

My advice to other students who are applying for the scholarship would be to spend more time focusing on your studies and also spend some time researching and pondering on the topic that you want to choose for your thesis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Think about how you can prepare yourself for your overseas experience in Germany, or things that you want to learn during your study experience. These are things that you can write about in your motivation letter for the scholarship.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Think about how you can prepare yourself for your overseas experience in Germany, or things that you want to learn during your study experience.\u201d<\/p>

Do you have any suggestions to improve the DAAD Scholarships for future students?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

In my opinion, I feel that the scholarship could have other different aspects to it. It can be something that not only benefits the receiver financially, but perhaps one other way the scholarship could help the receivers would be to give some incentives to enhance the German study experience, such as providing some German language classes in Germany. With additional knowledge of Germany, I feel that this will allow students to easily transition to the life in Germany.<\/span><\/p>

What is one key takeaway that you had while studying at TUM Asia?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Studying at TUM Asia has taught me greatly about perseverance and diligence. I believe that without these values driving me, I would find it hard to graduate or achieve my goals.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
