From 2014 to 2019, Claudius Ellsel attended the bachelor degree course mechanical engineering at RWTH Aachen University with design methodology as specialization. Also at RWTH Aachen University, he completed the master degree course design and development with distinction in 2020.

Thematic focuses included design methodology and the product development process. In his theses, one at Forschungszentrum Jülich, further areas like additive manufacturing and machine learning were dealt with more deeply.

Since March 2021, Claudius Ellsel is a research assistant at the Chair of Industrial Information Technology (IIT).
