Master's Thesis Computer-based Generation of Optimal Body Structures (f/m/x)

NO NEED TO PREDICT THE FUTURE. YOU CAN CREATE IT. 

SHARE YOUR PASSION.

World-leading technologies don’t make it into a BMW until they’ve undergone one of the most challenging journeys imaginable. It takes dynamic teams with outstanding technical skills to take them from the drawing board to the road. That’s why our experts will treat you as part of the team from day one, encourage you to bring your own ideas to the table – and give you the opportunity to really show what you can do.

In the early phase of vehicle development, the design of the body structure plays a crucial role. In order to increase efficiency and precision in this area, the aim of this thesis is to develop the foundations for a system that generates optimal body concepts based on various target variables using computer-based methods.

What awaits you

• Research on the state of the art in the field of automated, generative body development and multi-objective optimization.
• Analysis of requirements and challenges in selecting and placing body components.
• Evaluation of different optimization methods for the defined problem, particularly with respect to scalability.
• Implementation of the identified method(s) as a proof of concept (PoC).
• Analysis and evaluation of the developed algorithms in terms of their efficiency and accuracy.

What should you bring along?

• Study in the field of computer science, mathematics, artificial intelligence, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, or a comparable degree program.
• Solid knowledge of the Python programming language.
• Experience with AI/optimization frameworks.
• Desirable: An understanding of the fundamentals of vehicle construction and body development.
• Self-initiative, motivation, and the ability to work independently, as well as enjoyment of working in a team.

What do we offer?

• Comprehensive mentoring & onboarding.
• Personal & professional development.
• Work-Life-Balance & flexible working hours.
• Homeoffice.
• Attractive remuneration.
• Apartment offers for employees (only Munich).
• And many other benefits: see bmw.jobs/benefits
