We recommend you leave your car on one of the parking lots at Campus Nord and use the H-Bahn suspended monorail system , which conveniently connects the two campuses.
At "Stadtgarten" you switch trains and get on line U42 towards "Hombruch". Look out for the Station "An der Palmweide". There are two stations on Campus Nord. From Dortmund Central Station, you can continue to the university campus by interurban railway S-Bahn. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark". The International Office of TU Dortmund University offers exchange students the service of reserving rooms in the dormitories of the Studierendenwerk Dortmund, since TU Dortmund University does not have its own residence halls, and furnished, affordable rooms are rare on the free housing market in Dortmund.
To reserve a room in a student dormitory, please fill out the form Accommodation Request , sign it and upload it in your application. Exchange students are accommodated in single apartments or shared flats for two, three or four students of the Studierendenwerk Dortmund.
In all dormitories students have their own bedroom. You have your own bathroom in your apartment. Either you also have your own kitchen in your apartment, or you share a common kitchen in the hallway. The Studierendenwerk Dortmund offers barrier-free accommodation for people with disabilities. Please inform your contact at the International Office see below about your special needs. The Studierendenwerk Dortmund is a legally independent institution that is not affiliated with TU Dortmund University.
Since the waiting list for a dorm room is very long, and exchange students would therefore have no chance of getting a place in the residence halls in the regular application process, TU Dortmund University has set up a cooperation agreement with the Studierendenwerk Dortmund.
