Speculative Application Bremerhaven: Internship, Student Assistantship with/without Thesis

The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (www.fraunhofer.com) is one of the world's leading organizations for application-oriented research. 74 institutes develop pioneering technologies for our economy and society – more precisely: 30 000 people from technology, science, administration and IT. They know: Anyone who comes to Fraunhofer wants to and can make a difference. For themselves, for us and for the markets of today and tomorrow.

At the Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy Systems IWES, the energy transition becomes a reality every day. Our focus topics are: offshore wind energy, hydrogen, test infrastructure and digitization. More than 400 employees – including around 100 students – from over 50 countries work at nine locations in scientific and non-scientific teams on the development of innovative methods to accelerate the expansion of the wind energy and hydrogen economy, minimize risks, and increase cost efficiency.

Do you want to join us in shaping a sustainable future and get a taste of practical work during your studies? Great, as we are always looking for new talents!

Be part of change

Our fields of research are very diverse: At our site in Bremerhaven, we focus on testing and validating of components of wind turbines and for hydrogen production, field measurements on turbines or offshore, and logistical issues and site analysis covering all aspects related to the installation of new wind farms. We are always looking for active support, which offers you insights into the latest research and development projects. Are you wondering what that would look like? For example, you can apply your knowledge and skills in hydrogen technology by supporting the electrochemical investigations of electrolysis and fuel cell components. Would you rather work on one of our test benches for large components for wind turbines? At the nacelle test bench, you can work on grid integration, while our rotor blade test bench offers exciting challenges in the further development of test and measurement methods. Perhaps you are more interested in software development? Or maybe you enjoy modeling? We are still the right place to be with our work on creating digital twins of components and test rigs, and due to our software that supports the logistical planning of offshore wind farm installations. You can also get out of the lab and test the methods you have developed in the real world by assisting with measurement campaigns on wind turbines in the field or by preparing and following up on wind measurement campaigns with our lidar buoy. Get actively involved; we are keen to hear your ideas! As an international oriented IWES-team, we highly appreciate an open exchange, whether this be in German or English. Respectful cooperation is also very important to us.

What you contribute

Depending on the area of employment, a different field of study can be suitable for joining us. If you are currently enrolled in a bachelor’s or master’s degree program in Engineering or Natural Sciences, that is a particularly good match for our research fields. Have you already come into contact with wind or hydrogen technologies as part of your studies? Perhaps you also had the opportunity to deepen your theoretical knowledge through internships or part-time jobs? Do you want to expand your knowledge here and contribute your ideas? Then we look forward to meeting you.

What we offer

We offer various opportunities to join us as a student. Whether it is an internship, where you gain a comprehensive insight into the areas of work, or the role of a student assistant, which is easy to combine with your studies. Are you looking for an exciting topic for your thesis and do you want to delve deeply into a topic scientifically? Together, we will find the right path for you! We know that studying can also be very demanding and requires a certain level of flexibility. That is no problem here, as – in agreement with your colleagues – you can decide flexibly what days and hours to work. Temporarily, you can even work remotely, depending on the job.

In case of a student assistantship (can be combined with writing a thesis), the working time consists of up to 80 hours per month. During an internship, the working time consists of 39 hours per week. For student assistantships, the remuneration is based on the general works agreement for employing assistant staff.
