Working student job
At a glance
- In conjunction with a degree course, preferably in engineering, computer science or a comparable course of study
- Duration: up to 20 hours per week possible during the lecture period, more during the semester break by arrangement
- The job can be taken up at any time during your studies and is designed for regular, long-term collaboration
- Paid employment
- Prerequisite: university entrance qualification and enrollment at a college or university for the entire period of employment
What's behind it
As a working student, you can regularly work with us for up to 20 weeks during the lecture period, and you can also extend this period during the semester break if you wish. You will receive a traditional salary, a working student contract and will be involved in our processes, i.e. you will actively work on one or more projects. The focus here is more on practical experience and direct collaboration in the team, which is why it may also be possible to work as a student trainee while studying in areas other than IT.

UNIVERSITY, COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES
Term papers and theses
At a glance
- Degree courses: engineering, computer science, similar degree courses
- Integration into the course of studies, therefore enrollment and coordination of the task with the university required
- Duration: depending on the university; usually 3-6 months or one semester
- Selection of topics: Current calls for proposals from PreHCM or, after consultation, own proposals from a company-relevant area
What's behind it
We offer you the opportunity to write your thesis or term paper at PreHCM as part of your studies. You can either apply for one of the advertised topics or proactively propose your own topic from the field of telecommunications regulation management and radio spectrum. Together we will check whether your topic can be integrated into an existing project or whether there are current issues to which your proposal fits. During your student research project, you will be actively involved in the relevant project and focus on the central question of your thesis.
Depending on the progress of your studies and the type of student research project, you will be given more personal responsibility or more intensive support from your development team. Our aim is to give you the freedom you need to develop your results independently – with as much support as necessary, but as little as possible.
