Gaining practical experience
As a medium-sized company, we offer ideal opportunities to gain practical experience. Interested individuals can complete both general internships in mechanical engineering and project-related tasks as part of their studies.

General internships
A general internship at OPITZ provides a targeted introduction to the processes involved in a mechanical engineering company. As a medium-sized company, we are able to offer individual support for both commercial and technical internships. A general internship is therefore suitable both for career pre-selection through a school internship and for gaining practical experience during your studies.

Project-based internships
As an innovative company, we are constantly striving to improve and further develop our systems and products. As part of a project-based internship, students have the opportunity (for example, in the form of a project or thesis) to implement solutions to specific tasks in a constructive and mechanical manner. Our support helps them to develop marketable solutions that can be put to practical use in our systems. Applicants should have basic mechanical training, experience with Inventor and/or AutoCAD and design experience.
If you are interested, we would be happy to provide detailed information about the development projects available at OPITZ – simply Contact us.
