What PTB offers students

Fundamental research is the basis for all tasks at PTB – whether in society, the economy or science. To solve complex problems, above all a great potential capacity of creative staff members in science and research is necessary in addition to the high-quality equipment. Thus the advancement of young technicians and scientists is of paramount importance at PTB. The contact at PTB for all your questions pertaining to the support of young scientists and researchers is the Presidential Staff, who will be pleased to arrange the respective contacts.

Together with partner universities, student work (undergraduate and graduate studies, Bachelor's and Master's theses, internships) is assigned within PTB's broad field of activity. Thus, tomorrow's staff members can already become familiar with the metrological field of work at a very early stage of their career and work on challenging questions.
