In Augsburg, 47 young women and men will begin their careers, including four students enrolled in integrated mechatronics degree programs (vocational training in mechatronics parallel to studies in this field at the Augsburg University of Applied Sciences) and two students from partner institutions (vocational training in industrial mechanics alongside mechanical engineering studies in cooperation with the Ulm University of Applied Sciences).
