“After my apprenticeship at the FGK, I decided to do a dual study program so that I can work in my trained profession, as a ceramics testing technologist, and at the same time deepen my specialist knowledge during my studies.
I am happy that I can complete the dual study program at FGK and my colleagues support me.”
Carolin Röcher, dual student at the HS Koblenz and the FGK

“I really enjoy working with the employees. They are all friendly, help me with questions and explain things to me that I don’t understand straight away. This gives me a good insight into the work in the test laboratory.”
