Studying and Living

The 80-acre park-like Jacobs University Bremen campus offers what, in Germany, is a new concept for teaching, research, and living. Undergraduate students live in four residential colleges on the campus. Each college comprises students and faculty of different disciplines, origins, and ages.

Study and research is organized into three units: the School of Engineering and Science (SES), the School of Humanities and Social Sciences (SHSS) and the Jacobs Center on Lifelong Learning and Institutional Development (JCLL).

Lively exchanges between students and faculty are encouraged outside as well as inside the seminar rooms.
