Education and science

At Herrenknecht, reliable technology and technology know-how take pride of place. We are driven by our fascination with how the inventive spirit can bring tonnes of steel to life. From the first idea to the finished machine, we are genuinely passionate about all that we do. Man and machine – we feel they're a perfect match for each other.

This enthusiasm for high tech goes back to our founder Dr. Martin Herrenknecht. He is the prime example of a technophile inventor. The inner drive to always improve on things, to rethink and go a step further – this is what characterizes his personality and his life's work. At Herrenknecht, we want to pass on this enthusiasm to young people. We want to support talented individuals and give them the best conditions for learning, studying and trying things out. In all age groups, internationally as well as nationally, we promote enthusiasm for technology so that in the future too, many engineers around the world will help solve the problems of tomorrow with sound knowledge and technology.
