“Learn, experience, win!” – has always been the motto of SPITZKE’s student competition. This popular challenge will enter its next round in the summer semester of 2022 (April – August). The participating students and universities can look forward not only to an exciting project, competent support from SPITZKE’s specialists and the award ceremony for the winner in September at InnoTrans 2022, but also to a prize totaling 10,000 euros – for the winner and his/her university.
SPITZKE’s student competition is aimed at students majoring in civil, industrial or mechanical engineering or mechatronics. This year, the task involves creating a concept for the implementation of BIM projects (BIM = Building Information Modeling) in the field of railway infrastructure at SPITZKE SE using the example of a track extension at the company’s headquarters GVZ Berlin Sud in Großbeeren.
The student competition is an important element for SPITZKE in supporting young talent within the railway system. “In order to be able to continue to promote sustainable mobility in Germany and Europe in the future, it is important that we already have an eye on the skilled workers of tomorrow.” Explains HR Director Christian Krippahl. “Due to this, everyone at SPITZKE is committed to the future of young people on a broader level – with the SPITZKE student competition as well as with our university partnerships, dual courses of study and our extensive apprenticeship program.
