Location & approach

By car

The campus of TU Dortmund University is located close to interstate junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerlandlinie A 45 (Frankfurt-Dortmund) crosses the Ruhrschnellweg B 1 / A 40. The best interstate exits to take from A 45 is “Dortmund-Eichlinghofen” (closer to South Campus), and from B 1 / A 40 “Dortmund-Dorstfeld” or “Dortmund-Barop” (both closer to North Campus). Signs to the university are located at all the exits.

To get from North Campus to South Campus by car, there is the connection via Vogelpothsweg/Baroper Straße. We recommend you leave your car on one of the parking lots at North Campus and use the H-Bahn (suspended monorail system), which conveniently connects the two campuses.

By train

TU Dortmund University has its own train station (“Dortmund Universität”). From there, suburban trains (S-Bahn) leave for Dortmund main station (“Dortmund Hauptbahnhof”) and Düsseldorf main station via the “Düsseldorf Airport Train Station” (take S-Bahn number 1, which leaves every 15 or 30 minutes). The university is easily reached from Bochum, Essen, Mülheim an der Ruhr and Duisburg.

You can also take the bus or subway train from Dortmund city to the university: From Dortmund main station, you can take any train bound for the Station “Stadtgarten”, usually lines U41, U45, U 47 and U49. At “Stadtgarten” you switch trains and get on line U42 towards “Hombruch”. Look out for the Station “An der Palmweide”. From the bus stop just across the road, busses bound for TU Dortmund University leave every ten minutes (445, 447 and 462). Another option is to take the subway routes U41, U45, U47 and U49 from Dortmund main station to the stop “Dortmund Kampstraße”. From there, take U43 or U44 to the stop “Dortmund Wittener Straße”. Switch to bus line 447 and get off at “Dortmund Universität S”.

By plane

The AirportExpress is a fast and convenient means of transport from Dortmund Airport (DTM) to Dortmund Central Station, taking you there in little more than 20 minutes. From Dortmund Central Station, you can continue to the university campus by interurban railway (S-Bahn). A larger range of international flight connections is offered at Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), which is about 60 kilometres away and can be directly reached by S-Bahn from the university station.

H-Bahn

The H-Bahn (Suspended Monorail System) is one of the hallmarks of TU Dortmund University. There are two stations on North Campus. One (“Dortmund Universität S”) is directly located at the suburban train stop, which connects the university directly with the city of Dortmund and the rest of the Ruhr Area. Also from this station, there are connections to the “Technologiepark” and (via South Campus) Eichlinghofen. The other station is located at the dining hall at North Campus and offers a direct connection to South Campus every five minutes.

Klartext – Was braucht vertrauenswürdiger Journalismus?

Start: 01/24/2019, 6:00 PM End: 01/24/2019, 8:00 PM Location: Erich-Brost-Institut, Otto-Hahn-Straße 2, 44227 Dortmund

Event type:

Diskussion

Zum Thema „Vertrauen in und Glaubwürdigkeit von Journalismus“ sind Journalistik-Studierende der TU Dortmund im Gespräch mit Vertreterinnen und Vertretern aus Zivilgesellschaft, Journalismus und Wissenschaft.

Wie Vertrauen in und Glaubwürdigkeit von Journalismus gestärkt werden kann, darum geht es bei einer Podiumsdiskussion im Erich-Brost-Institut für internationalen Journalismus am 24. Januar.

Oft ist von einem angeblichen Vertrauensverlust in journalistische Berichterstattung die Rede. Sicher ist zumindest, dass die Kritik lauter geworden ist, und dass die Debatte um die inhaltliche Qualität und die Glaubwürdigkeit von Medien schärfer geworden ist.

Was können, was sollten Journalistinnen und Journalisten von morgen aus dieser Debatte mitnehmen? Darüber diskutieren Studierende des Instituts für Journalistik an der TU Dortmund mit:

Mathias Tauche, Bürgermedienmacher bei LokalFernsehen AhlenTV
Cristina Helberg, Faktencheckerin und Reporterin von Correctiv
Dr. Katherine Engelke, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Münster
Prof. Dr. Wiebke Möhring, TU Dortmund

Die Veranstaltung richtet sich ausdrücklich auch an interessierte Bürgerinnen und Bürger, die Lust haben, kritisch und konstruktiv mitzudiskutieren.

Sie wird ausgerichtet vom Institut für Journalistik der TU Dortmund, mit freundlicher Unterstützung der Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung.

Einlass ist ab 17.30 Uhr.
