What does a mechatronic engineer:
The term mechatronics is made up of mechanics and electronics. As a mechatronics engineer, you build mechanical, electrical and electronic components that are coordinated in terms of their function. In the end, complex systems emerge. For this you need to know and understand the circuit diagrams and operating instructions in order to install the systems and finally put them into operation. You ensure their function through regular maintenance and repair work or build and construct the required components. You also need to be familiar with measuring devices – both digital and mechanical. Because if errors occur, you as a mechatronics engineer should find and fix them. This affects the software as well as mechanical problems. The core tasks of mechatronics include the development, construction, optimization and maintenance of machines and production processes, but also organizational tasks that primarily concern the planning of important steps and work processes, compliance with safety, quality and environmental standards and documentation.

Does the training suit me?
As a prospective mechatronics engineer, you should:

• above all enjoy technical and manual work
• being interested in machines and how they work
• work carefully and precisely
• have manual skills
• have a understanding of technical relationships.

The training is dual and lasts 3.5 years.

What does an industrial mechanic:
As an industrial mechanic, you are responsible for all technical work on industrial plants and machines. You control production and mechanical processes and ensure that machines and systems are always ready for operation and function optimally. You build entire machines and systems at production sites, put them into operation and instruct them in how to operate the system. The maintenance and repair of systems and machines are also part of the job profile of an industrial mechanic. You combine knowledge from the fields of mechanical engineering, production engineering and computer science.

Does the training suit me?
As a prospective industrial mechanic you should:

• above all enjoy technical and manual work
• have manual skills
• have good technical understanding
• be able to work in a physically demanding way
• work responsibly and carefully
• have good eyesight for small tasks.

The training is dual and lasts 3.5 years.

What does a machine and plant operator:
As a machine and plant operator, you put machines into operation. You carry out maintenance and repairs on the machines to ensure their operational readiness. Your tasks also include controlling and monitoring the process flows, storing the goods and carrying out production controls. You document production data, coordinate with the upstream and downstream areas and prepare the work processes. Furthermore, you carry out quality assurance measures and take into account the requirements of environmental protection, occupational safety and economic efficiency.

Does the training suit me?
As a prospective machine and plant operator you should:

• above all enjoy technical and manual work
• have manual skills
• have good technical understanding
• work attentively, carefully and precisely
• be able to make decisions
• be able to react quickly.

The training is dual and lasts 2 years.

What does a electronics engineer for industrial engineering:
For you as an electronics technician, the daily motto is "Caution with electricity!", because you are responsible for all electronic work. Your everyday work includes systems for power generation and distribution. This includes, for example, installing electronic components, setting up various drive systems or wiring switching devices. You take over the maintenance of the systems and the instruction of the users in the operation of a system. You will learn how to read circuit diagrams and how the electrical inner workings are installed correctly. You are also responsible for the programming, configuration and testing of systems and safety devices as well as for designing system changes and extensions. You carry out measurements and analyzes of electrical functions and systems and assess the safety of electrical systems and equipment.

Does the training suit me?
As a prospective electronics technician for industrial engineering, you should:

• enjoy manual work
• being interested in electronics
• have good math skills
• be responsible, careful and patient

The training is dual and lasts 3.5 years.

What does a industrial electrician:
For you as an electrician, the daily motto is " caution with electricity!", because you are responsible for all electrical work. You work with mechanical components and electrical equipment by processing, assembling and connecting them. By installing, programming and configuring you set up electrical systems and facilities. You will also be responsible for regular maintenance and repairs. You will also work in quality assurance. You analyze and test electrical systems and functions, carry out safety checks on electrical installations and systems, document production data and coordinate with upstream and downstream areas. You take into account, among other things: the requirements of occupational safety, environmental protection and economic efficiency.

Does the training suit me?
As a prospective industrial electrician, you should:

• have technical understanding
• be good at physics and math
• enjoy working in a team
• have good eyesight
• work prudently and carefully

The training is dual and lasts 2 years.
