Possibility of finding part-time employment

Being a one-year full-time Master's programme and due to the intense study period and high work-load, it is not recommended to work during the course of study.
(In general, students from European Union countries do not require a work permit to work during their course of study. Students from countries outside the European Union may work 120 full days or 240 half days over the course of one year without a work permit. A special permit is required to work more than this.)

Accommodation

The International Student Assistance (isa@hs-bremen.de) takes on the task of finding accommodation. This service is available to students free of charge. The applicants also have access to an online database where they can choose from various options for accommodation. Most students live in rented rooms or apartments that must be rented for at least six months. The rent for a single room is a minimum of 450 EUR each month.
