Students at the campus of TU Dortmund University, with the Math Tower in the background. — Campus der TU Dortmund: Im Wintersemester 2021/22 startete an der TU Dortmund das studium oecologicum.

Als eine der ersten Universitäten in Deutschland bietet die TU Dortmund seit dem Wintersemester 2021/22 das studium oecologicum an: Damit können TU-Studierende über ihr eigenes Fach hinaus interdisziplinär Kompetenzen zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit erwerben. Henning Moldenhauer vom Nachhaltigkeitsbüro der TU Dortmund zieht nach dem ersten Semester eine positive Bilanz.

Das studium oecologicum ist ein Zertifikat, das TU-Studierende als Zusatzqualifikation während ihres Bachelor- oder Masterstudiengangs absolvieren können. Dafür müssen sie Veranstaltungen mit insgesamt zehn Leistungspunkten aus drei Modulen (Basismodul, facheigenes und fachfremdes Gebiet) absolvieren. Die interdisziplinäre öffentliche Ringvorlesung „Klima: Wandel, Werte, Wissenschaft“ der Fakultät Bio- und Chemieingenieurwesen bildet das Basismodul. Dort werden die fachlichen Grundlagen gelegt und verschiedene Perspektiven aus unterschiedlichen Fachbereichen vermittelt. In Zukunft sollen noch weitere Basismodule hinzukommen.
