Beautiful medieval buildings (e.g. the townhall, UNESCO world cultural heritage) and exciting modern architecture (Universum Science Center) are almost completely surrounded by a "green belt", structured by rivers and to a considerable extent assigned as nature conservation areas. A special student ticket for public transport, included in the semester fee, allows students to explore even the wider surroundings from the North Sea coast with the unique Wadden Sea ecosystem and the popular beaches of Cuxhaven to the City of Hamburg.</p> Content content-192449 Thu, 05 Mar 2026 16:09:04 +0100 https://www.uni-bremen.de/en/mscmarbiol/practical-issues#c192449 <p>Bremen has a long tradition as seafaring city and as a centre for overseas trade, maritime technology, marine research and education.
