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 exit to take from A 45 is "Dortmund-Eichlinghofen" (closer to Campus Süd), and from B 1 / A 40 "Dortmund-Dorstfeld" (closer to Campus Nord). Signs for the university are located at both exits. Also, there is a new exit before you pass over the B 1-bridge leading into Dortmund.

To get from Campus Nord to Campus Süd by car, there is the connection via Vogelpothsweg/Baroper Straße. We recommend you leave your car on one of the parking lots at Campus Nord 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 20 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".

The H-Bahn (Suspended Monorail System)

The H-Bahn is one of the hallmarks of TU Dortmund University. There are two stations on Campus Nord. 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 Campus Süd) Eichlinghofen. The other station is located at the dining hall at Campus Nord and offers a direct connection to Campus Süd every five minutes.

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.

Map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".

Guided Tour at the Zollverein in Essen

Start: 06/14/2025, 11:00 AM Location: Zeche Zollverein, Gelsenkirchener Str. 181, 45309 Essen

Mine winding tower of Zeche Zollverein in Essen

Together with international researchers from TU Dortmund University, the Ruhr University Bochum and the University Duisburg-Essen join us for a guided tour at Zeche Zollverein and learn more about the Ruhr area's history.

Dear international researchers of TU Dortmund University,

In cooperation with the Ruhr University Bochum and the University Duisburg-Essen we are inviting you to a guided tour at the Zollverein UNESCO World Heritage Site in Essen.

Gasometers, blast furnaces and particularly Zeche Zollverein, once the largest colliery in Europe, are visible reminders of the industrial past of the Ruhr area. What was once the heart and backbone of Germany’s coal and steel industry, has undergone an exemplary transformation into one of the country’s most vibrant regions for science and research.
Industrial sites have been transformed into exciting venues for cultural events and recreational activities.

Join us on a guided walk at the Zollverein UNESCO World Heritage Site and explore the living history of the Ruhr area first hand. The first part of the tour will start at 11 a.m. and will take approx. 1.5-2 hours. Afterwards you can have lunch (at your own expenses).

The second part of the tour will start at 2 p.m. and is optional. You may continue with the tour to see the area around the former coking plant, or you can use the afternoon at your own disposal and visit e.g. one of the museums instead.

Please use the following link to register by 7 June 2025: Zollverein Tour.

Please be aware that the number of spots are limited.

We are looking forward to seeing you!

Your Welcome Services Team
