Experiencing diversity first-hand at Bosch Engineering GmbH
I was already fascinated by technology – and cars in particular – while still at school. I found the perfect employer in Bosch Engineering GmbH; one that combines these two aspects and fosters my interests. My colleagues at the company are delighted to have some female company, as this can bring some fresh ideas and different solution approaches.
The cooperative-study model
Thanks to the nature of the cooperative program, Bosch Engineering GmbH is guiding me for a total of five years: from my occupational training right through to graduating with a bachelor’s degree. While studying, I have the opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge I have gained, and to make an active contribution. The sheer variety of projects and the openness of the different departments enabled me to familiarize myself with many different fields of activity, and to immerse myself in my technical interests.
Getting a feel for the company’s culture
I felt at home at Bosch Engineering GmbH right from the start. As a student, I am always taken seriously and treated as a fully-fledged member of the team. The way in which colleagues interact is very casual. Over the years, you get to know a lot of people who are always approachable and willing to help if you have any questions. The working hours are very flexible, which enables someone in my position to ideally combine studying with working. Bosch Engineering was even open to the idea of an internship abroad: The company helped me in my search for a suitable position by providing a recommendation and also financial support.
