Arrival / Departure to the summer school
We expect all students to arrive on July 1st by 17:30 on campus
(see directions). For this you should be not later than 16:45 at
Bremen main station (Hauptbahnhof, bus and train arrivals) or 16:00
at Bremen airport (arrival by plane). See below the instructions of
how to get from these locations to the campus.You should plan your departure on 11 July any time of the
day.
Note that early arrivals or late departures are possible, but
will be charged additionally 50 Euros per person per night (paid
during the summer school, no bank transfers). If you plan an early
arrival/late departure, please contact the organizers directly via
email to arrange your stay.
Arriving by train
You should buy a through ticket to Bremen-Schönebeck, a suburban
railway station within five minutes walk from campus. Trains from
Bremen Main Station to Bremen-Schönebeck show Bremen-Vegesack or Bremen-Farge as final destination. They run every 30 minutes till late, leaving
main station at 04 and 34 minutes past each hour from platform 5 or
6. During peak times, there are additional services at 19 and 49
minutes past each hour.
Should you end up at Bremen main station without a through
ticket to Bremen-Schönebeck, you must buy a ticket at one of the
ticket machines in the station. You cannot buy tickets on the
train. Get a ticket in the direction Bremen-Farge for €2.75. For
this use a search screen first typing "Bremen", and then "Farge."
The ticket machines allow you to change language to English. 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
below) after approximately 500m.
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
ticket to Bremen-Farge for €2.75 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, and exceptional cases to
non-minors. Participants who would like to use the shuttle must let
us know of their flight number and scheduled arrival time in
advance. Shuttle service will be provided by a prior agreement
only.
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.
Train travel to campus from Amsterdam or Frankfurt airports takes
about five hours, from Hamburg or Hannover airports - around three
hours, see information on Arriving by Train above.
