Constructor University’s three Schools convene scientists across a broad range of disciplines. Our research is characterized by multi- and interdisciplinarity that is as well the heart of our educational concept. Our faculty and research staff thrives to tackle global challenges and important societal developments by using the most recent digital technologies. Our on-campus research capabilities are enhanced through our network of global collaborators in academia and industry as well as the Constructor Group environment.
As a small residential university we take pride in the early involvement of our students in state-of-the-art pure and applied research and benefit strongly from the international and intercultural perspectives our student body brings into our research teams.
Research Areas
Image
School of Science
The School of Science provides an international and multidisciplinary environment for researchers in the natural sciences and mathematics. From numbers and quanta, molecules and cells, to oceans and planets - cutting edge research in mathematics, physics and chemistry, the life- and geosciences advances our knowledge, addresses global problems, and creates new technology.

Research at Constructor University: Predicting decisions with mathematical models
Scientists assume that we make up to 20,000 decisions per day. But how do they come about and can they be predicted with the help of mathematical models? This is the goal of a joint research project by psychologist Professor Adele Diederich and mathematician Dr. Keivan Mallahi-Karai at Constructor University in Bremen. The project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) with a total of around 340,000 euros.

Funding for French-German Research Project on Quantum Technology
In a project funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), a team of German and French researchers aims to solve the challenges of effective equations in quantum technology. Sören Petrat, Professor of Mathematics at Jacobs University Bremen, is scientific coordinator of the project on the German side.

DFG Funding Success for Franco-German Research in Chemistry
Together with two French colleagues, Professor Ulrich Kortz and Professor Werner Nau from Jacobs University Bremen form the CHAOPOM Consortium. Their bi-national research project "Chaotropic Polyoxometalates: From Fundamentals to Applications" is now being funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and its French counterpart, the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR), with almost one million euros for the next three years.
