Placement: Daimler España, Spain

"I worked in the Production Techniques department which is part of the Engineering Prototypes Division. I worked on several projects concerned with the standardisation of equipment and techniques applied to production lines in collaboration with production and maintenance colleagues.

Compared to my studies I gained much more practical experience at DCE. I learned how to work under time pressure and in consultation with different people and departments. I enhanced my academic skills by developing an algorithm and testing it. I also learned how to make presentations and share information.

Although I could not speak the language at the beginning, I learned to get along in a foreign country and a foreign language, and I made many friends!"
