ForstA 4****

ForstA is the abbreviation for “Forschend studieren von Anfang an” (research-based learning from the very beginning), a project proposal with which the University of Bremen won nine million euros in the federal-state programme “Quality Pact for Teaching” of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). With this money, which is paid out in the years 2012–2016, the university funds various projects that have been and are being developed in the faculties or across faculties and that take up the programme’s priorities: research-based learning and the heterogeneity of students.
