About the Program

The Summer School is part of our UBremen Summer Campus (formely Summer Lab) program, which was first held in 2018. The UBremen Summer Campus is part of a collaborative program with Coventry University (UK), the Kyiv National Economic University (Ukraine) and the State University of New York (USA) with students from Binghamton University and Stony Brook University. It is an exclusive program that is not open to other guest students.

The UBremen Summer Campus in Business Studies and Economics contains three building blocks and takes place from May to August. Students will earn a total of 12 credits.

Business Studies and Economics: 6 weeks (two 3 credit courses for a total of 6 credits)
Language and Cultural Training: 2-3 weeks (one course for 3 credits)
Praxis Summer Camp: 3 weeks (one course for 3 credits)

The UBremen Summer Campus is an internationally unique offer that gives students the chance to experience everyday life in Germany for up to three months. In the summer school, international students work together with Bremen students. They will get to know the German culture and language in the Language and Cultural Training, which takes into account individual language levels. They also gain hands-on experience at the PRAXIS Summer Camp, where they also work with local students to carry out projects for local companies.
