Frankfurt, Jan 23 (UNB): The German government has relaxed its education-related laws allowing students of the non-EU countries like Bangladesh to build career here on completion of their higher education.
As per the new law, students of the non-EU countries will be allowed to stay in Germany for one year to search their course-related job on completion of their study.
If they get job, they will also be able to apply for German passport after two years.
German language is mandatory for undergraduate courses in German educational institutions. However, students can study some courses at postgraduate level in English.
Tuition fee in Germany is almost free. Students have to pay fee only for language course as it is mandatory to learn before entering the mainstream higher education.
Though a few public universities charge a small amount in tuition fee, they provide the students with travel card or other facilities in exchange of the fee.

'did deutsch-Institute', a leading language institute specialist for German Language as a Foreign Language, organised the tour programme for the Bangladeshi journalists.
Briefing journalists, International Recruitment Manager of Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Frankfurt Dr Matheus Wollert said that there was no restriction for talented Bangladeshi students to study in German universities.
