Crazy about sports

Highway TU Health

The "Highway TU Health" offers all students, employees and guests of TU Dresden the opportunity to exercise without much effort. Strength and balance can be trained with simple exercises on four functional pieces of sports equipment. The "Highway TU Hell" is located right in the middle of the main campus between the Fritz Foerster Building and the Technical Control Centre. Benches invite you to take a pause for breath - or to linger.

Work and study in a family-friendly way

University with child(ren)

As a family-friendly university, TU Dresden offers a variety of services for parents and children. Central contact point is the Campus office “Uni mit Kind” There you can get advice on topics such as maternity protection, parental leave, financing (e.g. parental benefit, child benefit, unemployment benefit, alimony), organising studies with child(ren) and the reconciliation of a university career with family responsibilities.

In front of the building of the campus office "Uni mit Kind" there is also a playground known as the "CampusKISTE". Interactive wooden boxes invite the children to play, climb and slide.

For childcare during studies, there are various daycare facilities and the short-term care "Campusnest", which is also available to employees. The facilities are supervised by the Studentenwerk Dresden (Student Union).

Care for relatives

Caring for family members is also a key issue in the reconciliation of work and family life. TU Dresden therefore offers a care counselling service for students and employees.

In addition, we have developed a digital care guide together with other Saxon universities and colleges. This provides information on how to apply for care services, on the compatibility of care, study and work, and on contact persons at TU Dresden.
