Hi Melanie,
I know that Adidas and BMW are willing to work with students for their final bachelor’s and master’s projects.
The project will be fully confidential and you have to develop a specific research/design theme for the company that also fits your own skills and motivation. You will need a very good portfolio so make sure you are prepared before contacting anyone. Emar Vegt was one of my fellow students and he joined BMW after doing a master project with them. He can likely point you to the right people: http://emarvegt.com
