At the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT, we may not be developing swords to fight the dark side of the Force, but our developments often sound like science fiction. That's because we are designing the technologies and processes for the future of digital production, packaging and scanner technology, and many other laser-based applications, such as 3D printing and laser fusion. Are you looking for an exciting job as a student assistant (m/f/d) that will change the future? Then become part of our #OneTeam in the Marketing and Communications department. The Marketing and Communications department communicates the benefits of laser technology innovations to customers, R&D partners, funding agencies, alumni, and young professionals at Fraunhofer ILT, as well as to the interested public. The Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT is one of the leading contract research centers in its field internationally. On the one hand, it develops beam sources for industrial laser and system manufacturers, and on the other hand, it tailors laser processes and laser systems to the needs of users in the manufacturing industry.
