    The University of Bremen performed particularly well in the latest ranking by the Center for Higher Education Development (CHE) in the area of support at the start of studies. It also scored well in acquiring third-party funding.

    The current ranking is based on student evaluations and other indicators such as research performance, international orientation, and the practical relevance of the degree programs. The following subject groups were examined: electrical engineering and information technology, education, German studies, mechanical engineering, materials and process engineering, mechatronics, psychology, and Romance studies. Each subject group included both bachelor's and master's degree programs.

    University of Bremen subject groups are among the top performers in three areas: Physics and education scored particularly well in acquiring third-party funding, while German studies and mechanical engineering were highlighted for their excellent support for first-year students. In Romance studies, the University of Bremen has a particularly high number of doctorates per professor.

    In the “International Orientation of Studies and Teaching” category, the master's program in Space Engineering also took a top spot.

    “The University of Bremen has long been at the forefront of the CHE Ranking in terms of support for students starting their degree and in acquiring third-party funding,” says Professor Maren Petersen, Vice President for Teaching and Studies at the University of Bremen. “This demonstrates that excellent research and excellent study conditions go hand-in-hand here.”
