Location & approach

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”.

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.

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 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.

Plan of site & interactive map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are located on two campuses, the larger North Campus and the smaller South Campus. In addition, some university facilities are located in the adjacent Dortmund Technology Park as well as in the city center and the wider urban area.

„Zwischen Brötchen und Borussia“: Watt’s Up – Die Energie-Show

Start: 06/15/2024, 10:30 AM End: 06/15/2024, 12:30 PM Location: Hörsaalgebäude II, Hörsaal 1 und 2

Event type:

Hybride Veranstaltung
Vortrag

Auch im Sommersemester 2024 bringt die Veranstaltungsreihe „Zwischen Brötchen und Borussia“ Themen aus der Physik einem breiten Publikum nahe. Die Vorträge richten sich an die interessierte Öffentlichkeit – Erwachsene sowie Kinder und Jugendliche – und finden sowohl in Präsenz als auch parallel per YouTube-Livestream statt. In diesem Teil der Veranstaltungsreihe sind „Die Physikanten“ zu Gast und feiern die Prämiere ihres neuen Programms „Watt’s Up – Die Energie-Show“.

TU-Alumnus Marcus Weber und sein Team produzieren Wasserstoff live auf der Bühne, zeigen Knalleffekte mit Solarenergie und bringen Hochspannungsleitungen zum Glühen. Dabei beantworten sie mit ihren Experimenten unter anderem, wie eine Wärmepumpe funktioniert, warum wir die Energiewende brauchen – und wie man nur mit Magneten unter der Decke laufen kann.

Es wird online für Interessierte ein Quiz zum Vortrag geben. Das Quiz wird auf der Veranstaltungswebseite 15 Minuten vor Vortragsbeginn frei- und 30 Minuten nach der Veranstaltung abgeschaltet.
