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.

Short Presentation

Gerhard Schembecker received his diploma as well as his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Technische Universität Dortmund in Germany. In 1999 he got the venia legendi for the field of process and plant design based on his habilitation thesis on heuristic numeric process synthesis. The support tool PROSYN for the conceptual design of chemical processes was developed in his research group.

Prof. Schembecker is co-founder of the consultancy firm Process Design Center (PDC) having offices in Dortmund (D), Breda (NL) and San Diego (USA). As President and CEO of PDC he has worked in more than 100 industrial process synthesis projects. He holds several process innovation awards.

In September 2005 Gerhard Schembecker was appointed Professor for Plant and Process Design at the Department of Biochemical and Chemical Engineering of Technische Universität Dortmund. His research interests focus on the conceptual design and simulation of (bio)chemical processes with special interest in innovative downstream processes and on module based plant design.

Gerhard Schembecker has published about 30 reviewed papers and textbook chapters, is co-inventor of 3 patents and member of various scientific organizations and advisory boards. He is speaker of the North Rhine-Westphalian graduate cluster "Industrial Biotechnology".
