Another speaker, Mohammad Rokib, S.S., M.A., talked about his experiences while studying in Germany. The recipient of the KAAD scholarship at Goethe University of Frankfurt said that studying in Germany was very exciting.
There are many scholarships offered in Germany. Don't let any student hesitate to apply, because if they have enough money, they won't go anywhere. "If you want to find a part-time job there, it's also easy, because the cost of living is cheap, there are no tuition fees for college," he explained.
In Germany, he continued, the main learning is discussion. Students are trained to be critical about everything. Starting from what was learned to discussing things that you had never thought of before. This approach to lectures makes students open-minded. This is the most interesting part that UNESA students must experience when going there.

Moreover, now there are many routes to get to Germany, for those who want to continue their studies, there are many scholarship offers. For those who want to research and work, there are many paths. This is proven by UNESA alumni, some of whom have had careers in Panzer Country.
"Hopefully, many students will be motivated to look to their future and seek experience there, in the future. Because getting there is not difficult, as long as you understand the route and conditions and qualifications. Moreover, we at UNESA collaborate a lot with partners in Germany. So the opportunity to go there is very open," he hoped. [*]
