Holocaust Remembrance Day: Engineering Sciences in the Nazi Era

What role did engineers play in the Nazi era? How did technical higher education institutions behave in the Third Reich? The Faculty of Production Engineering – Mechanical Engineering and Process Engineering – is inviting you to a public online event with a lecture on 27 January, 2023, at 4 p.m.

Every year, Holocaust Remembrance Day takes place throughout Germany on January 27. At the University of Bremen, one of the 12 faculties organizes the central commemorative event every year – this year it is the Faculty of Production Engineering – Mechanical Engineering and Process Engineering. In order to allow as many students and staff as possible to take part, the afternoon is a “dies academicus” (day of teaching), on which no courses take place.

Professor Jens-Christian Wagner, Director of the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorials Foundation and Professor of History in Media and Public Affairs at Friedrich Schiller University Jena, will discuss the role of engineers in National Socialism in his lecture starting at 4 pm..

The event will take place via Zoom webinar. Access data:
