The Bachelor's degree course in Mechatronics requires a basic internship of at least six weeks, which should preferably be completed before the start of the course. It can be completed in several separate periods. The overall proof of the basic internship includes a certificate of the internship, proof of the mentoring interviews in the 1st and 2nd semester and must be submitted at the latest at the beginning of the main course.

The basic internship comprises at least 240 working hours.

  1. Manual and mechanical machining, cutting and forming, e.g. drilling, turning, planing, grinding, straightening, bending, solid and sheet metal forming
  2. Joining and/or cutting processes, e.g. soft soldering of electrical components, hard soldering, welding processes, cutting technology
  3. Testing and setting functions/sizes on mechatronic systems
  4. Programming of mechatronic systems, e.g. PLC or microcontroller
  5. Primary forming processes, e.g. observation of the casting process, production of pressed parts, plastic injection molding
  6. Heat treatment of materials, e.g. hardening, tempering
  7. Practical activities, e.g. assembly, installation and maintenance of mechanical and/or electrical/electronic assemblies and components, incl. drive and measuring systems

At least 1 content area from points 1 to 4 of the list must be completed in the basic practical course. In total, at least 3 areas from the list 1 to 7 must be included in the basic practical course.

  • Relevant technical vocational training
  • FOS school-leaving certificate in the technical field
  • Relevant working student activity with proof of activity

To verify and confirm your basic internship, please send a corresponding proof/certificate to cschneider@uni-kassel, stating the internship period and your areas of activity during the internship. Please state your matriculation number in the letter.

The recognition of the basic internship is linked to participation in the mentoring interviews in the 1st and 2nd semester. The mentoring interview certificate must be submitted with the proof of the basic internship. (Resolution of the Mechatronics Examination Board from 15.10.2018)
