On Campus Now: University of Bremen’s “50 Reasons WHY” Exhibition

The University of Bremen's “50 Reasons WHY” anniversary exhibition has moved to the campus. You can see it now and over the whole summer semester in MZH Building (1st floor) and in the State and University Library Bremen (SuUB).

"I am delighted that the exhibition will now be on display on campus after its two stops in the Lower City Hall and Weserpark," says the President of the University of Bremen, Professor Bernd Scholz-Reiter. "Our goal was for as many people as possible to find out where in Bremen our university is anchored and what great things it does together with its partners. I would like to thank all those involved who have contributed to the realization of this exhibition and cordially invite everyone to view the exhibition at the two locations on campus," states the president.

Connected to the University in Many Ways

The exhibition was launched in 2021 to mark the university’s 50th anniversary. It includes more than 50 sites showing areas where researchers, teaching staff, and students are an important part of the economy, politics, administration, education, or culture – and where ideas and cooperation from within the university have created something new. Whether Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), AOK Bremen/Bremerhaven, bremer shakespeare company, or German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI): Various exhibition panels feature numerous actors who are connected to the university in a variety of ways. The 50 Reasons WHY exhibition thus vividly illustrates the university’s many facets and highlights its importance for Bremen City and Bremen State.
