From Researchers for Kids: Bremen Kids’ University from March 17 to 26
The University of Bremen is inviting children to take part in the Kids’ University from March 17 to 26, 2026. Children between the ages of eight and twelve are welcome to dive into exciting fields of research together with the university’s scientists.
What are fossils? How do influencers affect our decision to buy something? And how does a galaxy end up in your hot chocolate? These are just a few of the many questions addressed in two formats: lectures for school classes and workshops for individually registered participants. The lectures will take place from March 17 to 19, and are designed for entire groups from grades three to six. Discovery tours for individual school classes are also part of the program. Teachers can register their classes now via the Kids’ University website at https://www.uni-bremen.de/en/bremen-kids-university.
March 24 to 26: Workshops at the University of Bremen and Bremen City University of Applied Sciences
The workshops will be held from March 24 to 26, 2026 – during the Bremen Easter holidays – at the University of Bremen campus and at the City University of Applied Sciences (HSB). This is where the young participants can become researchers themselves. They will program self-driving robots, trace brainwaves as thought detectives, explore new foods from the sea, and take their first steps into genealogical research. The workshops will be held in small groups of up to 20 persons. The events will be held in German. Tickets are available for 6 Euro online via the Kids’ University website at www.uni-bremen.de/en/bremen-kids-university or directly through Eventbrite. To manage demand, a second round of tickets will be released on February 10 at 8 p.m.
The Kids’ University is organized by the public engagement team from the UniTransfer unit at the University of Bremen. Dedicated scientists from the university, the institutes located at the Technology Park Bremen, and the City University of Applied Sciences contribute individual lectures and workshops across a wide range of disciplines. The Kids’ University is financially supported by Sparkasse Bremen.
The University of Bremen embraces its societal responsibility by understanding research-based knowledge and technology transfer as an inclusive effort. The UniTransfer unit is the University of Bremen’s central interface between academia, industry, and society. Its experts support cooperation and projects across the full academic spectrum: from start-up support, to the commercialization of inventions, the placement of specialists and leadership personal, or science communication formats to the coordination of school outreach, the management of the university foundation, and fundraising.
