Information for Exchange Students
While a working knowledge of German is helpful for living in Bremen, the Bremen University of Applied Sciences offers more than 30 classes taught in English, including Journalism, Human Resource Management, Business Ethics, Global Business Strategies, International Finance, International Tourism Management, Management Theories, Strategic Marketing, Intercultural Management, Introduction to Politics, Politics and Policy-Making in the European Union, and The Political Systems of the World. Some programs, e.g. Journalism, run in German only and good German skills are a necessary requirement. The university, with 8,000 students from nearly 100 counties, also offers German language courses for international students. The 1,200-year-old city of Bremen (population 660,000) is considered a gateway to the world.
