The University of Bremen will organize the 16th Ingenieurinnen-Sommeruni – international summer university for women students and professionals in engineering and technology. From 14 to 29 August 2024 as program on place in Bremen, Germany. Additionally, we will start a small meantime course program which will be online during the whole year 2024. Our focus will stay on physically personal meetings and communication which is the core of our concept.

We cordially invite women students of all disciplines, levels and different types of institutions of higher education as well as all women interested in engineering and engineering professionals from all over the world! Teaching languages will be English and German. For more information, see the Ingenieurinnen-Sommeruni-FAQ2024-en.pdf .

There will be no participation fees for online courses of the meantime program.

For human resources managers we are particullarly pointing out that, during the whole summer school there will be plenty of opportunities to sponsor and to get in touch with graduates.
