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.

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.

Verlässlicher Prozess

Female, transgender and male icons are shown on 3 cubes, one finger points to the LGBT sign. — Studierende der TU Dortmund haben die Möglichkeit, die Änderung ihres Vornamens und des Geschlechtseintrags im universitären Kontext vorab ohne gerichtlichen Beschluss zu beantragen.

Die TU Dortmund unterstützt schon seit Langem den Wunsch trans*, inter* oder nicht-binärer Studierender, ihren neuen Vornamen bereits vor einem gerichtlichen Beschluss in Datenbanken, Dokumenten und E-Mail-Adressen der Hochschule eintragen zu lassen. Damit der Prozess der hochschulinternen vorgezogenen Vornamensänderung verlässlich geregelt ist, hat die Universität jetzt eine neue interne Richtlinie entwickelt.

Wenn bei trans*, inter* und nicht-binären Personen die geschlechtliche Identität und der gewählte Name nicht mit den Eintragungen in den Hochschulsystemen übereinstimmen, kommt es oft zu ungewünschten Outings und Diskriminierungen. Eine amtliche Änderung des Vornamens und der Geschlechtszugehörigkeit ist allerdings ein langwieriger Prozess. Die TU Dortmund versteht sich als eine Universität der gelebten und wertgeschätzten Vielfalt, deren Ziel es ist, diskriminierungsarme und förderliche Studien-, Forschungs- und Arbeitsbedingungen zu schaffen. Aus diesem Grund hat die Universität beschlossen, dass Studierende die Möglichkeit haben, die Änderung des Vornamens und des Geschlechtseintrags im universitären Kontext vorab ohne gerichtlichen Beschluss zu beantragen. Auch die Immatrikulation kann zukünftig bereits mit einem neuen Vornamen erfolgen. Studierende werden nach Antragstellung entsprechend vollständig unter dem neu gewählten Vornamen geführt.

Der Prozess der vorgezogenen Vornamensänderung an der TU Dortmund wurde mit Hilfe einer internen Richtlinie verlässlich geregelt. Die Richtlinie wurde vom NRW-Ministerium für Kultur und Wissenschaft ohne Einwände zur Kenntnis genommen. Das Vorgehen könnte auch so an anderen Hochschulen in NRW realisiert werden. An der TU Dortmund profitieren alle Beteiligten bereits davon, dass nun nicht mehr eine Reihe von Einzelfallentscheidungen den Prozess bestimmt.

Studierende können sich in allen Fällen der Vornamensänderung und/oder der Änderung der Geschlechtszugehörigkeit vertraulich von der Stabsstelle Chancengleichheit, Familie und Vielfalt beraten lassen.
