Mining technologists play a crucial role in our energy supply. They carry out geothermal drilling, extract raw materials, and construct underground storage facilities for important energy sources like natural gas and hydrogen. But they don’t rely on buckets and shovels—instead, they use cutting-edge technology. They’re also true experts when it comes to rocks and their properties. They’re skilled at assessing risks and making sure their worksite is safe for themselves and their colleagues. As you can see, it’s an interesting job that comes with a lot of responsibility. Check out our #kurzerklärt video (in German) to learn everything about training at UGS.

The mechatronics technician apprenticeship offers you the opportunity to work in a challenging technical environment. You’ll become an expert in installing, maintaining, and repairing mechanical, electrical, and electronic systems used on drilling rigs. This training demands resilience, technical skill, and the ability to work under varying conditions.
