The 2015 funding atlas of the German Research Foundation (DFG) lists the TU Dortmund among the "Top Ten" universities with the most research in Germany in five subject areas: in production technology , economics (including statistics ), materials technology , educational science and computer science .

history

Foundation and expansion until 1980

The first efforts to set up a university in Dortmund go back to 1897 . Under the impression of industrialization, there were initially plans for a technical university. A first application by the city of Dortmund to the Prussian government was rejected in 1908 despite strong support from business and science. Later demands, again in 1926 to the Prussian government and from 1945 only to the British military government and later to the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia, failed. It was not until 1960 that it decided to establish a university in the Ruhr area as part of the educational reform, for which Bochum and Dortmund were possible locations. In 1961, Bochum was awarded the contract for the newly founded Ruhr University Bochum , which sparked great outrage among Dortmunders and violent protests from the Dortmund city council, which is why the state government approved the construction of a technical university in Dortmund a year later. In 1963, a founding committee chaired by the future rector Martin Schmeißer began its work and two years later passed a structural plan, on the basis of which the state government decided to found a university with a focus on natural and engineering sciences. Construction work in the Eichlinghofen district began that same year, and on May 26, 1966, the foundation stone was laid by the North Rhine-Westphalian Prime Minister Franz Meyers . On December 16, 1968, the university was officially opened by the North Rhine-Westphalian Prime Minister Heinz Kühn in the presence of Federal President Heinrich Lübke .

Refectory, H-Bahn station and university library

The first courses took place on April 1, 1969 in the chemistry department. This is followed by the departments of mathematics and spatial planning (October 1, 1969), chemical engineering and physics (October 1, 1970), production engineering (today mechanical engineering) (October 1, 1971), computer science, statistics and electrical engineering (October 1, 1972), and Social Sciences (April 1, 1973). On October 1, 1974, the Faculty of Civil Engineering started teaching with the integrated training of architects and civil engineers in the Dortmund Model Building . In April 1974, it was the Chemical Engineering Department that was the first to move into the buildings on Campus North; today, most of the faculties and large facilities such as the university library , lecture hall and canteen are located there .

Development after 1980

On April 1, 1980, the Ruhr University of Education was integrated into the University of Dortmund. There came u. a. the areas of education, rehabilitation, social sciences, philosophy and theology, linguistics and literature, journalism, music and sport.

Since May 2, 1984, the H-Bahn has been connecting the two university complexes Campus North and Campus South. An extension to the nearby technology park was opened on December 19, 2003.

In March 2007, the University Alliance Ruhr (UA Ruhr) was founded by the three universities of Dortmund, Bochum and Duisburg-Essen . Under the motto “better together”, the University Alliance Ruhr offers scientists a variety of opportunities for cooperation and networking, while students benefit from the wide range of Bachelor and Master courses with numerous specialization options. With over 110,000 students, over 15,000 graduates annually, several hundred courses, almost 1,300 professors, more than 20 joint projects in research, teaching and administration, and eleven special research areas, the UA Ruhr has become the largest university association in Germany.

On October 18, 2007, the Senate decided to rename it to its current name. This renaming came into effect on November 1, 2007.

In January 2009, TU Dortmund University took on program responsibility for a nationwide TV learning channel that broadcasts under the name Nrwision in the digital cable network and on the Internet. Participants in the program include a. also so-called teaching editors at other universities and technical colleges in North Rhine-Westphalia as well as citizen groups.

On December 16, 2018, TU Dortmund University celebrated its 50th anniversary with a ceremony in the Konzerthaus Dortmund. Federal Education Minister Anja Karliczek, NRW Prime Minister Armin Laschet and Dortmund's Lord Mayor Ullrich Sierau congratulated them on the anniversary. The keynote address was given by the President of the European Council, HE Donald Tusk. In the morning, the University awarded Donald Tusk an honorary doctorate.

On April 4, 2019, the rector Ursula Gather dissolved the institutes for German language and literature as well as for English and American studies.

Faculties

The university has a total of 16 faculties, including both natural science and technology and human sciences and humanities:

Campus and student life

Locations

Student village
Seating in the gallery meeting point
Main cafeteria (2012)
University library with H-Bahn stop

The university is spread over two locations: Campus South and Campus North. The first H-Bahn line was opened in 1984 to bridge the line and enable fast transit between the two sections . In December 2003, another section of the H-Bahn was completed, which connects the university with the core of the technology park. The Faculties of Spatial Planning as well as the Faculty of Architecture and Civil Engineering, parts of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the University Administration are located on Campus South. The rest of the faculties are located entirely on Campus North. The most distinctive building on campus is certainly the ten-story building of mathematics, commonly called the Mathetower. On its roof there is, among other things, the transmitter of the campus radio Eldoradio and, since October 2010, the rotating, illuminated tu logo. With the help of local public transport, the North Campus can be reached via various bus lines and an S-Bahn line (S1). There are also connections to the B 1, A 40 and A 45 in the immediate vicinity. Since 2010 there has also been the “Campus City”, which is located on the university floor of the Dortmunder U in downtown Dortmund. TU Dortmund University regularly organizes exhibitions, readings and workshops here.

Canteens and cafes

The university's catering facilities are operated by the Dortmund Student Union and are partially supported by state grants. The main canteen is located on Campus North. The "Restaurant Calla" is located in a side wing. The “Mensa Süd” is located on the south campus. In addition to the two cafeterias, there are several cafés on campus (the “Gallery” in the cafeteria building, the “Food Faculty”, the “Cafe Che” in the chemistry building and the Chaqwa Cafe in the Emil-Figge-Straße 50 building) and restaurants ( "Vital" can be found in the campus north cafeteria building and "Archeteri @" in the south campus cafeteria building). The gallery offers 500 seats.

The Dortmund University Library

In the central library on the north campus and in the departmental libraries, there are almost 1,800 study and workplaces as well as around 1.7 million physical media available. The supply of literature is increasingly also covered by electronic publications (2013: 35,000 current electronic journal subscriptions and 62,000 newly acquired e-books).

Student representation

The Student Parliament (StuPa) is a parliament elected by the students of the Technical Dortmund and the highest body of the student body. The composition of the parliament, which currently has 35 seats, is determined in annual elections, for which various interest groups come together in lists. The student parliament decides on the statutes as well as the budget of the student body, the funds for this are collected with the semester fee. It elects the General Student Committee (AStA) from among its members, which implements the decisions of the StuPa. The student representatives take care of the subject-related problems and concerns of their students. Each student council sends a representative to the student council conference (FsRK). At the FsRK, interdisciplinary topics are discussed and joint activities are planned. The FsRK is also responsible for distributing the self-management funds with which the student councils finance their activities.

General university sports

University sports at the TU and FH Dortmund offer students, professors, employees and alumni a year-round sports program with over 160 sports courses and a campus fitness studio. In addition, events such as the traditional and open to all campus run are held year after year.

Music groups

There are numerous ensembles, choirs and bands at the university: jazz, rock and pop are just as much a part of the repertoire as classical works. Students from all faculties, employees and alumni of TU Dortmund University are represented in the ensembles of the Institute for Music and Musicology. Every semester there are performances and concerts on the program in which the results of the rehearsal work are presented. The TU Dortmund also has the following groups:

  • Dortmund University Orchestra
  • Student Orchestra Dortmund
  • Symphonic wind orchestra of the TU Dortmund
  • Ensemble for new chamber music
  • University Choir
  • Chamber choir of the TU Dortmund
  • Gospel choir "witty"
  • Big Band "Groove mbh"
  • Jazz and Pop Choir "Hebbboppers"
  • Big Band "Have a Nice Day"

Lecture theater

The Uni-Film-Club has existed since 1972 and shows films once a week in a TU lecture hall. This “campus cinema” is a student working group that originally emerged from the fact that the university was in a suburb and only offered a few leisure activities for the students. The student side then established regular film screenings at TU Dortmund University. In the meantime, the screenings are based on a technical standard that other cinemas also offer (4K presentation, surround sound).

research

Several DFG special research areas, transregios and research groups are located at the university. In the past 15 years, TU Dortmund University has been able to increase DFG grants. Third-party funding currently accounts for around 20 percent of total expenditure.

The TU cooperates with the local Fraunhofer institutes , the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Physiology and the Dortmund Technology Center in various research projects . A special feature is the Dortmund electron storage ring system ( DELTA ) located on Campus North . The facility is one of four synchrotron radiation sources in Germany and the only one worldwide that is operated at a university.

In the field of "Material, Production Technology and Logistics", researchers at TU Dortmund University develop concepts for material processing and, together with experts from the Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics, design the management of the flow of goods and production processes. The second profile area “Chemical Biology, Active Ingredients and Process Engineering” is supported by several partners: Germany's largest faculty for biological and chemical engineering, the Dortmund Max Planck Institute for Molecular Physiology and the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Biology cooperate with other institutions. In the third profile area, "Data analysis, modeling and simulation", computer science, mathematics, statistics, engineering and economics work together on the modeling of technical processes and economic developments. A fourth focus is on "Education, School and Inclusion".

Diversity management

TU Dortmund University has defined diversity as one of its central tasks. Since April 2011, TU Dortmund University has been pushing this process even more strongly through the Vice-Rector for Diversity Management, thus ensuring that diversity issues are discussed and taken into account in management decisions. The Vice Rector for Diversity Management is supported by the Equal Opportunities, Family and Diversity Office.

TU Dortmund University is active in numerous areas of university diversity management, for example through

  • essential scientific publications on diversity management,
  • a further education course "Managing Gender & Diversity",
  • a lecture series "Dealing with diversity as a social challenge" in teacher education, which was heard by around 10,000 students in the teaching profession and published in several volumes,
  • the consulting and services as well as project experience of the nationwide unique Dortmund Center for Disability and Studies (DoBuS) since 1978,
  • MINT mentoring for middle school girls,
  • the dual career service,
  • Childcare, there are more than 120 places available for small children of employees and students, of which around 60 places are allocated to the “4 Jahreszeiten” day care center run by the Studentenwerk and the “HoKiDo” university day care center in Dortmund,
  • the standard integration of accessibility in all construction measures.

Due to all these measures, the TU Dortmund was classified by the DFG in level 4 (= top group) of the research-oriented equality standards. At the beginning of July 2012, TU Dortmund University was the first university in North Rhine-Westphalia to be audited for its diversity strategy by the Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft (program “Much better! Difference than opportunity”). The Ministry for Innovation, Science and Research of North Rhine-Westphalia selected TU Dortmund University in December 2012 to take part in the “Shaping Diversity in North Rhine-Westphalia” auditing process.

International

More than 3000 international students from over 100 countries study at the university. Most of them spend their entire studies at the TU Dortmund.

Partner universities

The university cooperates with universities all over the world. The type of cooperation is different. On the one hand, there are strategic partnerships that are concluded at university level. The selection is concentrated on a few partners in North America, Asia, Europe, South America and Africa. On the other hand, individual institutes or faculties maintain numerous collaborations at faculty level with universities worldwide. As part of the student exchange, the focus countries are the USA, Australia, Brazil, Japan, Canada, Korea, Mexico and South Africa.

USA program

The university maintains a variety of partnerships with universities in the USA. In addition to student and academic exchanges, there is also a large number of research collaborations. Due to the excellent relationships with universities in the United States and with very good numbers of student exchanges, the TU Dortmund has a unique selling point within NRW in this regard. Particularly noteworthy here are the successes in supporting American students, which ensure that around 40 American students come to TU Dortmund for one or two semesters every year and thus the same number of Dortmund students with a tuition fee waiver in the United States States can study.

International Student Exchange Program (ISEP)

Joining the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP, Washington DC) and bilateral agreements between TU Dortmund University and US universities open up affordable opportunities for students in Dortmund to study for one or two semesters in the United States. ISEP gives access to more than 150 universities in the United States.

UA Ruhr liaison offices

The three foreign offices of the Ruhr University Alliance (UA Ruhr, formerly the Ruhr Metropolis University Alliance) carry the strengths of the Ruhr Area as a research and study location all over the world. The three Ruhr area universities have now gained a foothold in North and South America (UAR Liaison Office New York; UAR Liaison Office Latin America) and in Russia (UAR Liaison Office Moscow). In a short period of time, you have initiated numerous exchange, scholarship programs and scientific collaborations, thus making a valuable contribution to the international orientation of the Ruhr region.
