Course catalog
Erasmus+ exchange students benefit from a particularly diverse range of teaching and research at TU Dortmund University. They can choose courses from their department, with the language of instruction varying between German and English. In some cases, it is possible as a student in the Bachelor's program to also select courses from the Master's program and, in addition, one or two courses from other departments. Please put together your desired course selection and discuss it with your Departmental Coordinator.
Module Handbooks | "Syllabus"
Most departments at TU Dortmund University structure their degree programs in so-called module handbooks (Modulhandbücher), so that the same courses are offered regularly or recurrently. Some departments, e.g. the Department of Cultural Studies, sometimes offer new courses on current topics every semester.*
In the following table you will find all study programs at TU Dortmund University as well as their module handbooks or a course catalog from the current semester for your orientation. A short instruction for reading the course descriptions can be found here.
