Overview

An important part of the study program is an industrial internship of a total of 15 weeks, which can be completed in part before the start of the study program. This is regulated in the internship regulations. If you have any questions, the Internship Office of the Faculty of Engineering will be happy to help.

Where can I do the industrial internship?

The internship can only be completed in companies that are also recognized by the Chamber of Industry and Commerce as training companies. In addition, internships are permitted in larger engineering firms and other companies geared towards system or technology development that guarantee an internship within the scope of these guidelines.

Craft enterprises that do not engage in activities in the industrial sense are not suitable. For the same reason, work as a student assistant is generally not accepted.

Activities in the internship

Examples of areas of activity for work experience for the Bachelor/Master EIT degree programs are as follows:

1. Manual and mechanical activities in the processing of metals and plastics
2. Connection technologies
3. Manufacturing of components, parts and assemblies of electrical engineering and information technology
4. Assembly, installation, testing, maintenance and repair of electrical engineering and information technology equipment and systems
5. Design, implementation and testing of software
6. Working with application software
7. Calculation, project planning, construction, computer-aided techniques in areas of electrical engineering or information technology
8. Assembly, installation, testing, maintenance, commissioning and repair of components, circuits and systems in areas of electrical engineering and information technology
9. Working in research, testing and development laboratories and in testing facilities
