Placement: EDAG Inc., USA

"I was assigned to the CAE/Design Department where I supported the Project Manager with preparing, planning and executing projects. I was trained to use the latest CAE software for the first time; it´s expensive and my university doesn´t have it. My work taught me that teamwork is as important as the ability to work independently. The key is to combine the two in the right way. During my stay, I had the chance to visit the North American International Auto Show with my colleagues, where I saw many new developments by the automobile manufacturers. I made the right decision to accept the challenge of an internship in a foreign country. It not only gave me work experience, it gave me the opportunity to extend my personal horizons."
