University study with in depth practical experience
The Bavarian State Ministry of Sciences, Research and the Arts has sponsored the Hochschule Bayern e.V. Project for secondary education in Bavaria since 2006. Brose and the Coburg University of Applied Sciences have been cooperation partners since the program’s inception. Brose wants to enable students with select specializations to obtain advanced qualifications through practical experience. This is why the operational portion of the program is almost double that of the standard requirement for internships.
Our expectations
Our Bachelor study programs
Apprenticeship is the foundation stone
Whether you’re a qualified specialist, office employee or academic professional: everyone can have a successful career at Brose. What’s most important to us is your willingness to work hard to accomplish what you set out to achieve with motivation and dedication here at the Brose Group. It all starts on your very first day of training. And it continues far beyond the completion of your apprenticeship here. As your professional expertise grows, doors will open to you for a responsible position on one of our career paths. What counts most is your ambition and your desire to continually learn and improve.
Knowledge opens new career doors
Practice-based apprenticeships, seminars, language courses: during your apprenticeship we’ll provide you with everything you need later in your career. The automotive sector is growing by leaps and bounds, so an eagerness to learn and a thirst for knowledge will be your constant companions throughout your career. We have a saying: “Learning never stops, even after your apprenticeship”, and we feel it is especially applicable for our apprentices: stay curious, take advantage of our education and training opportunities at home and abroad – and be responsible for developing your career.
Responsibility is part of your success
If everyone performs their best, then the end result will also be outstanding. All of our employees are accountable for their own actions, their duties and their performance from their very first day on the job, and this is a key factor in our success. Our work is characterized by friendly cooperation and our quality commitment to our customers and business partners. During your apprenticeship, we will help you understand this philosophy and lead you step-by-step to developing an ownership mindset making you responsible for your own work.
Expand your horizons
We operate at 70 locations in 24 countries. Our international orientation plays a major role in your training. You can spend part of your apprenticeship at one of our locations in Europe or overseas, provided your performance and participation meet our criteria. Learn more about the wide world of Brose. Gain valuable personal and professional experience, engage in intercultural exchange and establish a network of contacts.
Brose Junior Company
Every skilled occupation requires different capabilities. The Brose Junior Company enables first and second-year apprentices to use all of their talents – just like they would in a real company. Apprentices learn about accepting and processing orders, customer service, production and much more in this training company, and tasks are coordinated and streamlined here. This simulation enhances your understanding of our company’s workflows, promotes team spirit, ambition and responsible action. It also helps prepare you for your career in the Brose Group.

Basic information on university study with in-depth practical experience (Dual-track studies)
The Bavarian State Ministry of Sciences, Research and the Arts has sponsored the Hochschule Bayern e.V. Project for secondary education in Bavaria since 2006. Brose and the Coburg University of Applied Sciences have been cooperation partners since the program’s inception.
Brose wants to enable students with select specializations to obtain advanced qualifications through practical experience. This is why the operational portion of the program is almost double that of the standard requirement for internships.
How many courses does Brose offer?Brose cooperates with the Coburg University of Applied Sciences on the concept within the scope of the Bachelor of Automotive Technology and Management and Electrical Engineering and Information Technology programs.
The program’s theoretical and practical components are perfectly coordinated: switching between university study and practical work in the company is systematic – both during the semester and the breaks for more in-depth insight into the day-to-day work you’ll be performing the future. Standard academic structures don’t even come close to bringing you the practical experience you will gain here.
Despite all of these advantages, the entire course of study including your Bachelor’s thesis is just seven semesters. You graduate from the program with a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering. We offer you comprehensive support, both with your project thesis here at Brose and your Bachelor’s thesis.
What qualifications are required?You have either completed your higher secondary education and are qualified to attend a university or university of applied sciences or have demonstrated your ability to participate in the dual studies program.
Our trainers will guide you during your course of study, especially when working on seminar, project and Bachelor’s theses here at Brose. They will also help you plan a stay abroad at one of our many international locations.
Once everything is prepared to transition to full-time employment, we will work with you to determine your field of specialty even before you complete your degree – bearing your personal abilities, skills and goals in mind.
Of course, we also expect you to be interested in working in technology or business. Naturally, we expect the same qualities from you that we wish to see in all Brose employees: team spirit, ambition, pleasure in sharing success and enjoyment of responsibility are attributes that will have a positive impact on your career at Brose.
Will I be paid by Brose?As a Brose student in the dual-track studies program, you will receive a training allowance. This will ensure you remain financially independent and can concentrate on your studies.
What are the deadlines?The university is located in Coburg; the Brose apprenticeship component can be completed in Coburg or Hallstadt near Bamberg.
Apprenticeship training always starts on October 1.
