Apprenticeship as a precision mechanic (specialising in mechanical engineering) and subsequent mechanical engineering studies with in-depth practical experience
Do you have a high school diploma, a subject-specific higher education entrance qualification or a technical college entrance qualification?
Would you like to combine theory and practice?
Are you characterised by motivation and performance?
Then apply now for a dual study programme at Pfanzelt Maschinenbau, because here you can apply the theoretical knowledge you have acquired in real practical projects at the same time.
Apprenticeship as a precision mechanic (FA Mechanical Engineering)
The precision mechanic produces precision metal parts for machines and devices and assembles them into a functional unit. In most cases, precision mechanics use computer-controlled machine tools (CNC) to do this, but sometimes they also carry out the work manually, for example in the production of prototypes.
Precision mechanics plan work processes, set up machine tools and machine metal using cutting processes such as turning, milling and drilling. Their area of responsibility also includes the subsequent inspection of the work results, as well as the assembly of components through to the finished tractor.
As you can see, the profession of precision mechanic requires a great deal of sensitivity, finesse and precision work. In return, however, it offers a very varied and challenging field of work that has much more to offer than you might imagine at first glance.
Study with in-depth practical experience (mechanical engineering)
From vehicles to machine tools, from creative ideas to production - as a mechanical engineer, you will help shape the development of our machines from conception to use. By the end of your studies, you will be excellently trained to apply the diverse knowledge and methods of mechanical engineering in your future fields of work.
The course of study is characterised by alternating phases at the university and in the company.
The lecture-free period is used for the practical application of the theoretical course content. The degree programme with in-depth practical experience ends with a company-related Bachelor's thesis at Pfanzelt.
Apprenticeship as a precision mechanic (min. 2 years)
- The 1st year of training is not required if you have a high school diploma
- Vocational school starts from the 2nd year (Kaufbeuren and Günzburg)
- Additional inter-company training in Augsburg
- With us, you will pass through all departments from machining production to final assembly of the complete products
- Part 1 exam after six months
- If you perform well, the apprenticeship period can be shortened by half a year (apprenticeship period 2 years)
Study programme with in-depth practical experience at Kempten University of Applied Sciences (at least 3.5 years)
