LCA Working Student

Join our LCA team as a Working Student and support the work that sits underneath every Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) we produce. Your focus will be raw material matching, the backbone of every EPD and LCA. You will work with the ecoinvent database and our Emidat Ecomapping tool, and research LCA topics such as product category rule (PCR) requirements. You'll gain hands-on experience supporting the day-to-day LCA team, who are responsible for the correct calculation of LCA results in the Emidat App.

At the same time, you'll dive into the building materials industry itself — getting to know manufacturers of cement, steel, windows, construction chemicals, asphalt, electronic building equipment, and many more, and understanding how differently each of them approaches EPDs and LCAs. This gives you insight into a diverse product spectrum with different peculiarities from an LCA perspective, which is valuable for building broader experience in LCA.

There is also the long-term opportunity to support and supervise a practical master's thesis within the Emidat environment. Our LCA team has experience supervising academic theses.
