The University of Mannheim is very highly regarded, especially for any kind of business subjects. The classes are very demanding and you will have to put in a lot of independent work, including math.

Universities of Applied Sciences (Fachhochschulen) in Germany have a good reputation. They are smaller than regular universities and have an attractive relationship and contact between professors and students. However, they are less strong on theory and basics and tend to focus on the application of their material in businesses. Most of them require an internship of three to six months, so that you can relate to actual work situations. In Germany graduates find jobs easily, but I am not so sure about internationals.

In Germany universtiy students have to do lots of independent study and there is less contact time. In many cases a hundred students attend a lecture. If you do not like that so much, a University of Applied Sciences is a good choice.
