Our professional team of trainers will regularly give you feedback and show their appreciation – something that is extremely important to us and will increase your level of motivation and satisfaction.

Technical and IT apprentices in particular will benefit from the state-of-the-art training center at our Graben-Neudorf site, which is equipped with innovative technology.

Our experienced trainers will supervise and support you throughout your training, with regular feedback sessions and seminars to further your personal development. Depending on your chosen training program, you will also benefit from up to 50 days of technical training. Examples include programming, CNC courses, training relating to MS Office and SEW-EURODRIVE products, and much more besides.

We offer you a choice of two study models where practical phases at the company alternate with theory blocks at your university. The first is the three-year bachelor's degree program at the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW). The second is the StudiumPLUS program at the Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, which lasts four and a half years, is even more practical, and also includes parallel training via the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK).

The compact Cooperative State University degree program lasts six semesters and ends with a bachelor's degree (210 ECTS credits). Our partner university is the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW), and the degree program takes place in Karlsruhe or Mannheim (accountancy, taxation, and commercial law – accounting & controlling course only).

During the six practical phases, you will obtain multiple insights into potential future areas of work for after you complete your studies, and you can even participate in exciting tasks and projects.

The highly practical StudiumPLUS model lasts four and a half years and combines a degree program at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences with multiple practical placements at SEW‑EURODRIVE. Alongside a compact nine-month apprenticeship, you will also obtain a great many insights into potential areas of work for after you complete your studies – through active participation in projects, for instance.

With this model, you ultimately obtain two qualifications at once – a bachelor's degree from the university (210 ECTS credits) and a training qualification.

Many students take the opportunity to complete a practical phase at one of our SEW‑EURODRIVE branches located around the world and, for example, participate in an IT rollout or a production/assembly project.

If you do well on the degree program, you can spend one theory semester at a partner university in another country.

With a bachelor's degree, you are already fully qualified.

On completing your studies, you have numerous options. You have a good chance of being offered a job with our company straight away.
