Bremen Kids’ University: From Researchers for Kids for More than 20 Years

Christina Selzer Hochschulkommunikation und -marketing
Universität Bremen

    The University of Bremen is inviting you to the 20th Kids' University from April 1 to 10, 2025. Children between the ages of 8 and 12 can take part and together with scientists, they can discover exciting research areas.

    How can thoughts be made visible? Can computers be creative? How does a galaxy end up in your cup of chocolate milk? What languages do people at the North Pole speak? These are some of the questions that will be addressed in the lectures taking place from April 1 to 3, 2025. Entire class groups from grades 3 to 6 are invited to attend the lectures on April 1 and 2. On April 3, the nationwide Future Day (“Zukunftstag”) for students in secondary schools, only lectures for grades 3 and 4 will take place. In this anniversary year, discovery tours for individual school classes will also be offered for the first time alongside the lectures. Teachers can register their school classes now via the Kids' University website at https://www.uni-bremen.de/en/bremen-kids-university.

    April 8 to 10: Workshops at the University and University of Applied Sciences

    The Kids' University workshops will take place from April 8 to 10, 2025 on the university campus and in rooms at the Bremen City University of Applied Sciences – during the Bremen Easter holidays. This is where girls and boys will have the opportunity to become junior researchers themselves. They will program self-driving robots, explore the world of brain waves as mind detectives, discover new foods from the sea, and gain their first experiences with the French language. The workshops will be conducted in small groups of up to 20. The first tickets will be available online for free from 8 p.m. on February 5, 2025, via the Kids' University website at https://www.uni-bremen.de/en/bremen-kids-university or directly from Eventbrite. To avoid a rush for tickets, a second batch of tickets will be released for booking at 8 p.m. on February 10, 2025.

    The Kids' University is organized by the University & School Outreach Office of the UniTransfer Unit at the University of Bremen. Numerous dedicated scientists from the university, the institutes in the technology park around the University of Bremen, and the Bremen City University of Applied Sciences contribute to the individual lectures and workshops. The Kids' University is financially supported by Sparkasse Bremen.

    The University of Bremen is aware of its responsibility in the community and involves society as a whole with its broad understanding of research-based knowledge and technology transfer. UniTransfer is the University of Bremen's central point of contact between academia, business, and society. The experts support collaborations and projects across the entire range of subjects taught at the university. This ranges from business start-ups, to the commercialization of inventions, the placement of specialists and managers or science communication formats, the coordination of programs for schools, the management of the university foundation, and university fundraising.
