Insights, formats & reasons to join the Career Camp
Career camp at the University of Bremen
Meet employers, build skills & gain insights into career fields
The Career Camp is your chance to step out of the lecture hall and into the real world of work — and you can even earn 3 credit points (3 CP) while doing it! Instead of just theory, you’ll take part in hands-on workshops, hear from companies in guest lectures, gain insights into different professional fields, and have the opportunity to talk directly with employers. It’s the perfect space to discover what career paths actually fit you, build valuable connections, and get a clearer picture of your future. Along the way, you’ll level up your application skills, strengthen essential soft skills, and boost your confidence for entering the job market.
The Career Camp is designed for students from FB01, FB03, FB04, and FB07 who want to explore career options, meet potential employers, and grow both professionally and personally. Whether you already have a plan or are still figuring things out, the camp helps you gain direction, practical insights, and real contacts that can make a difference for your career journey.

-
