Together with twelve apprentices from other Fraunhofer institutes, former Fraunhofer IZM apprentice Pascal Graap (micro technologist, focus microsystem technology) was honored for his outstanding exam results by the Fraunhofer Board of Directors.

Excellent exam results have become something of a tradition among Fraunhofer IZM apprentices: Since 2006 Pascal Graap is the fifth IZM apprentice to finish his exams with excellent grades. He is now working as a micro technologist in the IZM-department System Integration and Interconnection Technologies (SIIT). "We are pleased to have someone who is not only perfectly trained for our specific requirements but has also worked in other departments at the institute ,” says Karl-Friedrich Becker, who is in charge of the working group Assembly and Encapsulation in the SIIT department.
