ticket machines in the station. You cannot buy tickets on the
train. Get a Tarif Zone II ("Preisstufe II") ticket at €3.00. You
may have to validate the ticket by time-stamping it in one of the
little blue boxes on the station platform.
When you arrive at Bremen-Schönebeck, take the stairs up the
bridge, cross the bridge and follow the road (which turns into
Bruno-Bürgel-Straße). You will reach the Jacobs main gate (B in map

Arriving by air
Bremen Airport is located close to the city center. As a hub of Ryan Air, it offers convenient direct flights to many European
destinations, as well as generally good international connections
via Frankfurt, Paris, or Amsterdam.Arriving at the airport, take Tram 6 up to Bremen Hauptbahnhof
(main station), then follow the instructions above to
Bremen-Schönebeck station for a five minute walk to campus. There
is a ticket machine on the tram which takes Euro coins, get a Tarif
Zone II ("Preisstufe II") ticket at €3.00 which is valid all the
way to Bremen-Schönebeck. Total travel time from Bremen Airport to
Jacobs University is approximately one hour.
There will be a limited shuttle service from Bremen Airport to
campus. Priority is given to minors. Participants who would like to
use the shuttle must let us know of their flight number and
scheduled arrival time in advance.
It is worth checking for convenient connections to Hamburg or
Hannover as well. Both airports have train connections to Bremen
within two hours travel time. Intercontinental travelers may want
to check for cheaper direct flights into Amsterdam or Frankfurt.
