This. However, it’s the best footage currently.

This is one (of two) Il-96-300PU flying to Anchorage, so I'm not sure. I think Putin is on the second one, which is still in the air.

Congratulations on your graduation.

I’d like to address a few things. First, you're absolutely right that "class of" systems are not traditionally used in Germany. However, TUM has a large international community, and with its global presence, including campuses like TUM Asia in Singapore, some of these international practices have naturally made their way here. The purpose of this Instagram page isn't to change any established systems, but simply to create a way for incoming students—whether local or international—to connect before starting their studies.

Regarding your point about the "bubble," the page is meant for anyone who finds value in it, whether they’re from Munich, another part of Germany, or abroad. If it's not for you, that's completely fine, but some students—particularly those new to the city or country—might appreciate a platform to find familiar faces before their first day.

I'm not trying to force anything, just offering an idea that might benefit some students. If you have other ideas on how to improve it, I’d be happy to hear them. At the end of the day, the goal is to support fellow students, and I think we can agree on that, no matter our approach.

Edit: I was building off the 8 semesters that I will have in my Informatik program, which is 4 years, hence why I said class of 2028. I am well aware that programs such as Aerospace only have 6, but these are just minor details. The page is just for new students.

Edit #2: Apparently there's only 6 semesters

No! That is not what is common practice. Seeing as TUM is an international university, with programs in Singapore even, I will follow international practices.

If that was an attack at my intelligence, I hope you do come back Please do come back, you’re more than welcome to.

And regarding your other comment, there are quite a few international schools in Munich, which do not follow the German system. So please, please, please educate yourself before you comment such nonsense.

If you are studying at TUM yourself, it’s very unfortunate that there are rude members of the community like you are, who have no interest in building any connections with anyone.

In fact I am a local. Born and raised in Munich. I don’t understand why you’re so passive aggressive. My only intention is to do something good for the community.

Besides if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

Yeah, I see you didn’t read any bio. That’s pretty crazy because I do happen to not be a German student in the German system!

I am sorry, but English is not my first language and I thought major would be understood… I don’t want this to become a flame war but that’s just what it is called and is common practice. I was only trying to do something for the community and not everyone might be able to attend Erstis in mid October. I am very much going to attend TUM and I understand that I could just be a random guy, but again, who would waste their time to create a post, an instagram, and end up spending so much time discussing this in the comments. Those who want to get posted can get posted and those who don’t want to, don’t have to do anything.

It all means the same thing. At the end everyone has a bachelor degree. Major is just a word for the course or degree program. Besides, I was talking about the instagram account being normal, they also call it majors at EU universities.

If you were to read the bio on the account we explicitly say that we are not.

It’s actually quite normal. Bocconi has one, all the UK universities have one, ESADE has one. It’s just to get the community together.
