Where to Find Campus Navigation and University Services on tu-dresden.de

The TU Dresden homepage (tu-dresden.de) provides two direct entry points for what you need: Campus Navigator for locating and navigating the campus, and Our Services for the university's service offerings for students, staff, and visitors. Both are listed among the homepage's main headings, alongside news and video content about the university.

Campus Navigator: Finding Your Way Around Campus

The homepage lists Campus Navigator as a dedicated entry point. Use it when you need to orient yourself on campus — for example, to locate a building, find your way to a specific site, or plan a route before an in-person visit.

How to use it

1. Open tu-dresden.de.
2. Look for the Campus Navigator heading/link on the homepage.
3. Follow the link to the navigation tool, then search for the location you need.

Expected result: you reach the campus navigation tool, where you can look up campus locations rather than hunting through general university pages.

Common snag: the homepage is content-rich, with news items and feature stories competing for attention. If you don't see the link immediately, scan the page's section headings rather than the news feed — Campus Navigator appears as its own heading, not as a news article.

Our Services: The University's Service Hub

The homepage also lists Our Services (appearing twice among the page headings, reflecting its role as a central access point). This is the section to check for services the university offers to its audiences — students, employees, and visitors.

When to use it

• You need a university service but don't know which department handles it.
• You want an overview of what the university offers before contacting anyone directly.
• You're a visitor or prospective student looking for the right starting point.

Expected result: you land on a services overview from which you can pick the specific offering relevant to you.

Common snag: "Our Services" is a broad umbrella. If you already know exactly what you need (e.g., a specific office), going straight to that office's page may be faster than browsing the overview.

What Else the Homepage Offers

Beyond navigation and services, the homepage gives a quick orientation to the university itself:

The news section also profiles TUD's research clusters — for example, robotics and the tactile internet (CeTI), sustainable electronics (REC2), climate-neutral construction (CARE), and quantum materials (ctd.qmat). These are useful if your visit is research-related, but they are not the place to find practical navigation or service information.

Quick Decision Guide

• Need to find a building or get around campus? → Campus Navigator.
• Need a university service and aren't sure where to start? → Our Services.
• Want a general introduction to TUD? → the video and brochure links.
• Looking for research topics or current university news? → the News section.

All of these are reachable from the tu-dresden.de homepage; no login is indicated for browsing these entry points.
