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.

Sich auch im Alter weiterbilden, unerfüllte Berufswünsche nachholen und Gleichgesinnte kennenlernen – das alles bietet das Weiterbildende Studium für Seniorinnen und Senioren der TU Dortmund. Es sind noch freie Studienplätze für das Wintersemester 2021/2022 vorhanden. Am 20. Juli 2021 um 10 Uhr können sich Interessierte bei einem Online-Schnuppertag über das Angebot informieren.

Das Weiterbildende Studium für Seniorinnen und Senioren ist ein Angebot der wissenschaftlichen Weiterbildung für Erwachsene, die in der Zeit nach der Berufs- oder Familienphase eine bewusste Lebensplanung für das Alter beabsichtigen. Das Studienangebot steht Interessierten ab dem 50. Lebensjahr offen. Unter dem Motto „für mich, mit anderen, für andere“ erweitern die Seniorinnen und Senioren im Rahmen des Studiums ihre Kompetenzen für eine nachberufliche gesellschaftlich relevante Tätigkeit bzw. für ein bürgerschaftliches Engagement.

Der Schnuppertag findet als Videokonferenz statt und bietet Interessierten die Gelegenheit, sich umfassend über das Studium zu informieren. Die Leiterinnen des Seniorenstudiums Prof. Monika Reichert und Ursula Siebel-Militzer sowie das Service- und Beratungsteam werden einen Einblick in das Studium geben und Fragen beantworten. Insgesamt umfasst das Studium fünf Semester, das entspricht in etwa zweieinhalb Jahren. Der Studienbeginn ist immer im Wintersemester. Die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer müssen außerdem ein Praktikum absolvieren und eine Abschlussarbeit schreiben. Die Teilnahme und der erfolgreiche Abschluss werden durch ein Zertifikat bescheinigt. In der nächsten Studiengruppe sind noch einige Plätze frei. Die Anmeldung für das Seniorenstudium ist ab sofort möglich.

Unabhängig vom Online-Schnuppertag bietet das Service- und Beratungsteam jeden Dienstag und Donnerstag von 10 Uhr bis 12 Uhr Sprechstunden an – online oder telefonisch.
