Location & approach

By car

The campus of the TU Dortmund University is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the A45 crosses the B1/A40. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.

By bus and train

The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S1 runs every 20 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. In addition, the university can be reached by the bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr transport association, and DSW21 also offers an interactive route network map.

The H-Bahn

One of the landmarks of the TU Dortmund is the H-Bahn. Line 1 runs every 10 minutes between Dortmund Eichlinghofen and the Technology Center via Campus South and Dortmund University S, while Line 2 commutes every 5 minutes between Campus North and Campus South. It covers this distance in two minutes.

By plane

From Dortmund Airport, the AirportExpress takes just over 20 minutes to Dortmund main station and from there to the university by S-Bahn. A wider range of international flight connections is offered by Düsseldorf Airport, about 60 kilometers away, which can be reached directly by S-Bahn from the university's train station.

12 Nachhaltige/r Konsum und Produktion

Equipment that can be used jointly is to be listed in order to save resources and strengthen interdisciplinary cooperation.

A list is to be compiled for the entire university listing large-scale equipment that can be used jointly or shared.

Especially in the area of research, new equipment is expensive and resource-intensive. Sharing large-scale equipment saves costs and unnecessary purchases. In addition, knowledge on how to deal with each other can be shared and interdisciplinary cooperation is strengthened.

The list can be extended to any number of small items and should, if possible, be accessible centrally or online.

This project idea was developed during the 'Campus of the Future' workshop at the end of September 2021.
