Feb 28, 2022 at 11:36 comment added Jochen Glueck There are several reasons to severely doubt whether the total amount of industry funding of a CS department is a good predicator of whether you'll be able to "get connected with huge companies" when you do your PhD there.
Feb 28, 2022 at 11:36 comment added DCTLib Sorry, I misread your question, Jimmy. The guide is available at ranking.zeit.de/che/de, but it will not distinguish between public and private third-party funding. Note that the page that you linked to @TU Berlin does explicitly not say that they are one of the richest departments. They say that they are one of the "strongest research departments", and then they talk about how much money they are getting from third-part sources. The first sentence does not necessary refer to money, and if you look at the German version of the page, this actually becomes clear.

Feb 28, 2022 at 8:44 comment added Claude Rather than looking at universities at a whole, I would look at at publications in your area of interest and see which of them were published jointly by a company with a university lab. Joint research projects are often between company and professor, not company and university.
Feb 28, 2022 at 7:45 comment added user9482 "my main motivation is to get connected with huge companies, such as Amazon or Google" If your main motivation is establishing a connection with US internet giants, why do you intend to do your PhD in Germany?

Feb 27, 2022 at 19:07 comment added DCTLib The study guide of the newspaper "Die Zeit" has data on the mean amount of third party funding per professor, grouped by courses of study.
Feb 27, 2022 at 19:05 comment added lighthouse keeper Having experience specifically in CS and Germany, I think that flow of money from industry to universities is the exception rather than the rule. Most funding is taxpayer money (e.g., DFG, BMBF and EU projects).
Feb 27, 2022 at 18:46 comment added Oleg Lobachev You might want to look into reports from DFG, but that's not everything, as @Snijderfrey mentioned.
