Experiences and dealing with diversity at European universities
"Diversity in Higher Education Institutions: Different Perspectives and Experiences" was the motto of this year's Erasmus Staff Week, which was organised by the International Offices of Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences, the University of Bremen, Bremen University of Applied Sciences and Constructor University in cooperation with the Offices for Equal Opportunities and Diversity. Around 40 participants from 14 EU countries, as well as employees from the organising institutions, attended the event.

Passionate about research
The university has four research clusters in which it works on a broad range of topics to address the societal challenges of our times.
Discover all four research clusters by clicking on the tabs.
Research Cluster Energy and Marine Technology
A clear priority in the university's research and development activities is the area of energy and marine technology. A considerable percentage of the university's third-party research funding can be attributed to this area.
Research activities in the life sciences are largely built on the expertise in the study programmes Biotechnology, Food Technology, Medical Technologies and Physician Assistant. Apart from marine research topics ranging from marine microbiology to fisheries biology, application-oriented research in the food sector is also of exceptional importance.
Linking the disciplines of 'logistics' and 'information systems' in one research cluster allows us to conduct applied research to identify, evaluate and realise potential for logistics and related areas. This is how we connect different areas, including such areas as digitalisation and maritime processes.
Research Cluster Tourism and Management
The research cluster Tourism and Management brings together research in the areas of the international tourism industry (esp. cruise tourism) and general management. In both areas, the focus is primarily on strategic issues and application-oriented, practical research.
