For a PhD student in Germany, living costs are roughly €850–€1,200 per month, covering rent, food, insurance, and transport. Big cities cost more, but many students manage with scholarships or stipends of €900–€1,300 monthly.

You’ll need about €1,100 every month. This pays for a small room, food, and health insurance. Most PhD students in Germany actually get a job at the university, so the paycheck they give you usually covers all your bills with a little left over.
