Trade fairs and exhibitions

Attention, pupils and students! On August 29, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., anyone interested can visit more than 70 companies and organizations in a relaxed atmosphere to find out about vocational training and study opportunities. In addition, there will be an extensive supporting program with numerous tips for a successful application, as well as snacks and music.

Once again this year, Fraunhofer IST will be represented at the Nacht der Bewerber (engl. Night of the Applicants), presenting exciting apprenticeships and opportunities for students.

Students at the Fraunhofer IST can take their first steps towards a professional career in research, technology or administration during their studies. We offer theses, internships, opportunities for student assistants and are constantly seeking curious and committed students who would like to work with us on sustainable solutions for surfaces and coatings for future-proof products and production systems.

We also offer pupils exciting and extensive opportunities to start a career in the five areas of science, technology, IT, administration and media design. You will be trained on modern machines and installations by our competent trainers or you work in a computerized administration, gain knowledge and skills to state-of-the-art and learn to assert yourself in all fields of your career.

We look forward to seeing you!
