Lively Campus

Small cafés, open spaces, student gardens, and a friendly atmosphere—that's the TU Dresden campus. You can travel comfortably and free of charge by bus and train between the individual locations (including the medical campus, Johannstadt, and Tharandt).​

​ TU Dresden also delivers what it promises in terms of technology: Numerous computer workstations and Wi-Fi throughout the campus enable smooth learning and working. Those looking for quiet and collected knowledge will find their place at the Saxon State Library - Saxon State and University Library Dresden (SLUB). It is one of the largest and most efficient academic libraries in Germany.

Comfort food for calming nerves: a wide selection of tasty treats at reasonable student prices is available at the 11 refectories and 7 cafeterias of the Studentenwerk Dresden [student union].

If you want to clear your head from the daily grind of studying, you can sign up for a course in one of the more than 40 sports at the Dresden University Sports Center, learn foreign languages, or volunteer at one of nearly 100 student clubs and organizations.

University City Dresden

Dresden is considered one of the best cities to live in Germany and is not called the 'Florence on the Elbe' for nothing. The comparatively low rents and cost of living also contribute to this. Students can find affordable housing both at the Studentenwerk Dresden [student union] and on the open housing market.​

Dresden is known for its diverse cultural offerings. Visits to cabarets, trendy pubs, museums, theaters, opera and concert halls, cinemas, or music festivals are just as much a possibility as activities in the many sports facilities or the surrounding nature of the Elbe landscape, the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, and the Erzgebirge/Ore Mountains. Incidentally, Dresden is considered the unofficial capital of student clubs, and the trendy Neustadt district ensures an exciting nightlife. If you want to get out of Dresden, Berlin, Prague, Leipzig, and Wroclaw are easy to reach.

Families are supported by many services in Dresden. This family-friendly attitude also continues at TU Dresden. As a certified family-friendly university, it strives to offer a family-friendly infrastructure. The two-day care centers of the student union help to balance studies and family.
