DMP campaign makes headlines
With provocative slogans on posters, banners and social media, the ‘Watch. Act. Protect.’ campaign developed by students in Bremerhaven draws attention to sexualised violence in sport. Numerous media outlets across Germany reported on the campaign launch last Tuesday.
Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences and the Language Centre of the Universities in the State of Bremen are jointly hosting a Language Week from 22 to 26 September, each day from 6 to 7 p.m., in the Cruise Lab of the university (Building S, Room 102, entrance on Columbusstraße). Short workshops will give anyone interested the opportunity to try out Bengali, German sign language, French and Arabic. In keeping with the European Day of Languages on Friday, 26 September, Dr. phil. Anne Gadow from the University of Bremen will speak about multilingualism in educational institutions. Participation is free of charge. Further details on the programme can be found at www.hs-bremerhaven.de/sprachenwoche.

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.
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.
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.
