In the area of education, the DLR Institute of Space Propulsion offers a choice between attractive education courses in the technical field and dual study programs in various disciplines.
Industrial mechanic specializing in maintenance technology
Education at the DLR Institute of Space Propulsion
In the in-house education workshop, trainees learn how to work with materials and the associated machines.
Industrial mechanics specializing in maintenance technology are qualified by their education to work in the field of maintaining and restoring the operational readiness of machines and systems. Their tasks may include inspecting, maintaining and repairing machines and systems as well as adapting operating systems to changing conditions. In doing so, they dismantle parts and assemblies under maintenance conditions, isolate faults, rectify malfunctions and recommission machines and systems after functional checks.

Mechatronics technician
Training in mechatronics
Since 2022, the M11 test bench complex has been offering education in mechatronics to introduce young people to a challenging and varied field of work.
Mechatronics education is very broadly diversified and covers topics in mechanics, electronics, electrical engineering and computer science. In the field of chemical space propulsion, this creates a challenging and varied field of work at the scientific and technological frontiers of our time. The apprenticeship lasts 3.5 years in the dual system (training center / vocational school) and ends with the skilled worker examination before the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK). The content of your training corresponds to the IHK training framework. During your education, you will get to know several departments at the site, where you will learn the basics of mechanical processing as well as the fundamentals of electrics and electronics. You will then apply and deepen this knowledge on the M11 test bench complex and add further specialist knowledge.
