Consultation

The Central Student Advisory Service is the primary contact point for prospective and current students with general (not program-specific) questions about studying at the university. It provides guidance on academic orientation and offers an overview of the available degree programs, admission requirements, and application options. Students who are doubting their degree decision or are considering changing universities or majors can also seek guidance here.
 

The study workshop conveys techniques and methods to facilitate academic work during studies and in the graduation phase, e.g. through targeted exam preparation for all types of examinations or writing workshops for your Bachelor's or Master's thesis. ECTS credit points can be acquired in the field of General Studies.

The subject-specific study centers are the central point of contact for students in matters to do with planning their studies and examination regulations. As a rule, they can also advise and assist students planning to spend time studying abroad. In individual cases, the study centers are also a contact point for program counseling and recognition of examinations. The study center also collects all information that is important for studies and forwards inquiries.

Since 2007, the University of Bremen has been actively committed to a family-friendly university. The overarching aim is to make it possible for students and employees to reconcile studies, science and work with caring for children or relatives. There are various counseling facilities.

Studying with a disability or chronic illness can entail a great deal of effort and overcoming many obstacles. The aim of the University of Bremen is to enable equal and independent participation in studies and University life and to offer targeted information and counseling services.

The social counseling services of the Studentenwerk (student services bureau) and the AStA support and advise German and international students on financial issues. There is also information on BAföG, scholarships, tuition fees for long-term students, and job opportunities.
