Location & approach

By Car

The campus of the Technical University of Dortmund is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerland line A45 crosses the Ruhr expressway 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 S-Bahn line S1 runs every 15 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 bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr Transport Association, and DSW21 also offer 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 Airplane

From Dortmund Airport, the AirportExpress takes just over 20 minutes to Dortmund's main train station, and from there, the S-Bahn takes you to the university. 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.

Successful participation in the "Forum Junge Spitzenforschung 2024" competition

04/26/2024

A successful third place for our innovation

The final presentation of the "Forum Junge Spitzenforschung 2024" competition on the topic of resource-efficient circular economy took place yesterday.

Our chair presented a research project entitled "Kreislaufschließung von PET-Abfällen durch optimiertes chemisches Recycling und anschließender Aufreinigung", which deals with the chemical recycling of PET.

The project was so well received that we were able to achieve third place out of a total of six finalists and 21 originally submitted ideas.

We congratulate Maria Schlüter, Dr. Kerstin Wohlgemuth, Lukas Seppelfricke and Dr. Christoph Held on this success.
