Internships

We offer a wide range of internships. Undergraduates, who are studying Engineering or Economics, for example, and have to do an internship as part of their course, can do this at our plant and, where applicable, write their dissertation at our company. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer the 8-week foundation internships required by some higher education institutes. Schoolchildren, however, are welcome to apply for an internship so that they can get a first impression of what the world of work is really like. Such interns get to see our electronic workshop, our E&I workshop and our laboratories as well as our admin offices, metalworking shop and materials management department. An internship at our company is, without a doubt, an exciting experience. Please contact our HR department for further information.
