Bremen
The 2017 International Summer School for Students takes place in
the Free Hanseatic City of
Bremen, a major industrial and cultural center in the
north-west of Germany with a history of 1,200 years. It is famous
for its Bremen Town
Musicians, its town hall, a UNESCO World Cultural
Heritage site, and its maritime traditions which are most
visible in the Vegesack

Jacobs University
Jacobs
University, the host institution of the 2017 Summer School, is
an independent private university founded in 1999. The language on

With undergraduate programs in Mathematics (offering specializations in

International Summer School for Students.
