German Dipl.-Ing. Naval Architect

Objective


I am a student of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering at the Technical University of Berlin. I will graduate in the fall of 2007 (german Diploma, equivalent to a MSc) and I am looking for a naval architecture/engineering job in the northeast of the US. Beneath the basic naval engineering skills I have especially focused on theoretical, experimental and numerical hydrodynamics. During my study I have gathered work experience in different positions but mostly with my occupation as a student associate in the experimental section of the Department of Engineering Design and Methodology at the Technical University of Berlin. I am a fast and flexible worker, who takes his job seriously and quickly adapts to new tasks. I can work efficently as a member of a team as well as independently.
