Master's thesis about the characterization and rating of different surface treatments of steel in terms of the bonding qualities to fiber reinforced thermoplastic polymers. As well as working on similar research topics subsequent to the thesis.

I worked at the Institute of reciprocating engines (IFKM). Amongst others, my responsibilities were: *Skillfully operating a 1-cylinder engine test bench *Evaluating data gathered on the test bench and ran 1-D simulations *Designing optical access to the combustion chamber

I completed a 6 month internship at the Rolls Royce Power Systems AG's subsidary "MTU Friedrichshafen". Amongst others, my responsibilities were: *Designing a new double pump concept to minimize the size *Creating CAD models to optimize packaging of the engine components *Maintenance of the MS Access database and implementing new features

I worked at the Institute of Production Science (wbk). Amongst others, my responsibilities were: *Conducting experiments with broaching tools *Evaluating data gathered from experiments *Performing literature research on the state of art of various manufacturing technologies
