Political career[edit]

From 1987 until 1998, Rossmann served as a member of the State Parliament of Schleswig-Holstein. In this capacity, he was his parliamentary group’s spokesperson for education policy from 1988 until 1996.

Rossmann became a member of the Bundestag in the 1998 German federal election, representing the Pinneberg district.[2] Throughout his time in parliament, he was a member of the Committee on Education, Research and Technology Assessment.[3]

In the negotiations to form a Grand Coalition of Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU together with the Bavarian CSU) and the SPD following the 2013 federal elections, Rossmann was part of the SPD delegation in the working group on education and research policy, led by Johanna Wanka and Doris Ahnen.
