Very few studies have explored in detail the experiences of Chinese students at German universities, this study is an attempt to create a balance. The research focuses on psychological and sociocultural adjustment experiences of Chinese students at a German university, i.e. Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, and their situation after graduation. It reports quantitative and qualitative data and discusses practical implications of the findings. The study provides a starting point for all concerned to review and develop procedures and services which affect the experiences of Chinese students as well as other international students in Germany.

Dr. Dongmei Zhang, after receiving her bachelor and master degrees in China, was teaching Chinese students, mainly Tibetan. Their different culture and way of life have fascinated her and led her to do academic research about them. She also experienced international cooperation with foreign teachers and students in China. Since she came to Germany, she has met more Chinese students. The richness of their experiences has been attracting her, developing a strong desire to engage in research on various aspects of Chinese students' life in Germany. In 2014, she earned her PhD degree in Education and Psychology at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) in Munich. She is presently working for the International Office of LMU.
