Sommerpause 2026

Dear Alumnae and Alumni,

With the start of the summer holiday in Bremen on 2 July 2026, our Alumni Office will also be entering its summer break.

From 6 to 24 July 2026, we will have only limited availability. If you have any questions or requests during that period, please feel free to contact us at alumniprotect me ?!uni-bremenprotect me ?!.de. We will get back to you as soon as possible after our return.

We wish you a wonderful, relaxing and inspiring summer. Enjoy the holiday season, take time to unwind, gather new impressions and inspiration, and perhaps return with a few new ideas for autumn 2026.

Best wishes,

Your Alumni Team


Before we start our summer break, we would like to share two special events with you. Two invitations that show how vibrant, creative and future-oriented our University and our region are.

Canvas for Change: Art for Sustainability

The University of Bremen is far more than a place of research and teaching. It is a place filled with ideas, stories, talents and diverse perspectives. It thrives on people who remain curious, who want to create and who want to express their passion in different ways.

Many students, alumni and members of staff paint, draw, print or experiment with colours and shapes, whether in the studio, at the kitchen table, or between classes work, family and everyday life. Now that creative energy is being brought into the spotlight.

The initiative "Canvas for Change: Art for Sustainability" of the University Foundation invites all members of the University of Bremen to submit their own artwork for an exhibition in December 2026. The pieces will be exhibited at the Forum am Domshof and auctioned off in support of sustainability projects at our University.

A wonderful chance to showcase your creativity, support sustainability and become part of a unique community initiative.

Summer of AI

The focus on the future continues after the summer break: This summer, Bremen will host the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence and the European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI–ECAI 2026).

Accompanying these conferences, the Summer of AI offers a diverse programme highlighting science, technology, business, education and culture. Through public talks, interactive activities, networking events and artistic projects, visitors can explore the latest developments in artificial intelligence while discovering Bremen as a hub for AI and digital transformation.

Summaries


Alumni networking at the Wilhelm Wagenfeld House

The Alumni Association of the University of Bremen visited the Wilhelm Wagenfeld House. Director Dr. Julia Bulk guided around 20 participants through the exhibition “Focke Meets Wagenfeld”, offering expert insights. The focus was on everyday design and its significance for culture, heritage, and the way we see the world. The evening sparked inspiring conversations in a place that embodies design and zeitgeist in Bremen. Our sincere thanks go to Dr. Julia Bulk, the team of the Wilhelm Wagenfeld House, and Dr. Katerina Vatsella.

Everything about the event series

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.
