How Do We Secure the Future of Care?

Staff shortages, rising co-payments in nursing homes, and deficits in social long-term care insurance – these are issues we constantly hear about. At the same time, two out of three men and five out of six women will require long-term care at some point in their lives. This clearly highlights the need for action. Together with the SOCIUM Social Policy Research Center at the University of Bremen and the Integrated Health Campus Bremen, we invite you to a panel discussion on the most pressing challenges and necessary decisions following the federal elections.

“The Free Hanseatic City of Bremen is Ready...”

To mark the 25th anniversary of the University Archive, the staged reading “Die freie Hansestadt Bremen ist bereit...” is making a comeback! Originally created for the University’s 50th anniversary and only performed once, the performance will be shown again on June 11 – supported by the Alumni Association of the University of Bremen. A powerful piece of history, brought to life.

Memories of the University of Bremen

The university's archive is celebrating its 25th anniversary and warmly invites you to an Open Day on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the GW1, Trakt A. Discover fascinating insights into the archive stacks and boxes, learn about current projects, and enjoy lively conversations. Please register beforehand at archiv@uni-bremen.de.
A special request to our alumni: If you have memorabilia from your time studying or working at the University of Bremen and would like to share the story behind it, feel free to bring it along!

Networking of, for, and with Alumni

Alumni meet alumni – out network lives this idea. That is why we offer an event for our members every four to six weeks as part of the series “Networking of, for, and with Alumni.” The idea: At an after-work event, a host presents her- or himself, informative and interesting facts from science, business, or society, or their institution and gives the alumni room for discussion. At the ensuing get-together, discussions and conversations can be intensified, and new contacts can be made. Do you want to be our host for one of these events? More information can be provided by our Administrative Office. To read about some of our last events, click here.

Summer Fête

Each year, a large number of alumni come together for a large summer fête. In a relaxed and cheerful setting, there is plenty of time that allows for wonderful encounters at the outside area of the Café Unique (Enrique-Schmidt-Straße), for having conversations, networking, and celebrating. Literal food for thought is taken care of in the form of grilled delicacies. The summer fête offers the perfect opportunity to engage in conversation and to get to know one another.

Career Prospects with Alumni

In the series Career Prospects with Alumni, established in 2017, we annually offer between four and six seminars of and for alumni of the University of Bremen – all taking place on Saturdays and at a central location. These seminars are all on topics that have to do with careers. The offers cover a wide spectrum and are addressed both to Young Alumni with questions on a career start and different career paths and to professionally experienced alumni with topics on professional change or development.
