Career Advancement
Emerging from precision mechanics, the sensor industry today mainly comprises small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with high level of scientific, technical, and application-specific know-how, often specialized for diverse niches.
Sensor technology is a growth industry with a great potential for the future. A job in this industry is often considered as challenging and crisis-proof. It offers good opportunities for creativity and advancement. Instead of hierarchical structures, teamwork and partnerships are the rule.
Micro-electronics and microsystem technology (the development of micro-electronics in non-electronic areas) belong to the key technologies of the 21st century. Today, already 600,000 people are involved in the development and production of microtechnologies. There is hardly an area of technology, medicine, or environment in which microsystems do not already play a major role. For the manufacture of microtechnology components, technically sophisticated and highly complex production processes are necessary, which demand qualified and dedicated personnel.
