Cooperative study program at Schenck
A degree gives you outstanding prerequisites for your future career. And a cooperative study program also helps you take the first step. Professional experience right from the very first day, working in different parts of the company, involvement in real projects and sharing responsibility in the team: this means you do more than acquire theoretical knowledge: from the very beginning you will be collecting the kind of experience that really matters later on.
Important information
A cooperative study program takes 3 to 3.5 years, including a period spent abroad during one of the practical phases. The programs typically lead to a Bachelor of Science degree. Exceptions are the Electrical Engineering and Information Technology program and the Mechanical Engineering program, which lead to a Bachelor of Engineering. We offer our degree courses in cooperation with the Hochschule Darmstadt.
Prior to your degree course, you will start your program with us by doing a two-month preparatory internship. This begins each year on 1 August. Your degree course then begins on 1 October. Preferably, you should submit your application 12 months in advance.
