Mouser Electronics is sponsoring a skills programme at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) – a leading university in Europe for electrical and mechanical engineering.

This is a one-year course designed for first-year electrical engineering students, helping them to develop skills and knowledge as well communications ways to confidently interact with industry, project-manage and master the dynamics of effective teamworking.

“At Mouser, supporting students is rooted in the company’s foundation.’ states Mark Patrick, Technical Marketing Manager, EMEA at Mouser Electronics. “The students of today are the engineers of tomorrow and the advisor programme will help them to apply their learning to real world challenges – empowering innovation through practical problem solving and effective communication.”

Mouser started the partnership by delivering a collaborative workshop at TUM with Arduino and Red Pitaya on the fundamentals of circuit theory and pulse measurement last December.

“We’re thrilled to have Mouser’s support and collaboration on this programme,” said Dirk Wollherr of TUM. “We think Mouser’s involvement brings real value to the electrical engineering students, supporting them to develop their skills through interactive workshops.”
