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 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 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 plane

From Dortmund Airport, it takes just over 20 minutes to get to Dortmund Central Station by AirportExpress 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.

Plan of site & interactive map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".

Portrait of Holger Wormer

Lecture in the series "Brötchen und Borussia" by Prof. Holger Wormer, Department of Science Journalism, TU Dortmund & Rhine Ruhr Center for Science Communication Research

E-car or e-fuels? Injection or pellets? And what to make of the climate expert quoted by the uncle in the family group? Studies, experts are omnipresent. When it comes to medical and environmental topics, they are particularly popular as key witnesses for or against a certain behaviour in everyday life. But how does one actually know whether alleged scientific experts are actually trustworthy and which studies are meaningful? It is not only simple "fake news" that has long been widespread on social media. Fake studies" and "fake experts" are also regularly found, spreading false information in a particularly perfidious way under the guise of alleged scientificity. Using concrete examples from the fields of climate, environment and health, we would like to point out criteria that can be used to gather evidence and at least roughly check the quality of (allegedly) scientific sources for seriousness.
