Welcome booklet
Dear international students,
A warm welcome to Fachhochschule Dortmund!
This little booklet will help you find your way within our facilities. Furthermore, it provides you
with some useful hints and information on orientation in the university, city and more.
We wish you a good start!
Place to live
In case that you will be living in the accommodation provided by Studierendenwerk, you should
have sent a registration form and arranged the payment via Mrs. Albrecht of the International
Office already. After your arrival the Faculty Exchange Point or your buddy will give you the keys
to your rooms and will also show you the way. After successfully moving into your apartment,
you have to sign a contract (have a look at the working hours of Studierendenwerk).
Please note! After you got the contract signed, it cannot be easily terminated (cancelled). According to German law, if you want to move out from the flat before the contract expires you
have to notify 3 months in advance, or you have to find a person who will rent your apartment
for the rest period of the due contract. The same matters are more complicated with Studierendenwerk, because the person should be from their waiting list for a room.
!You have to pay your rent monthly; otherwise a fine is added to it!
!Take care of your key; if you lose it you have to pay a 110,- € fine!
!Clean your room and the common rooms (especially after having a party)! Leave the premises
as you’ve found them!

Yellow building in Campus Nord (to the right)
Public transport
As you don’t have “Semesterticket” when you arrive in Germany you have to buy a ticket for
your first days as long as you are not enrolled. This can be done at the vending machines. The
tickets are distinguished according to the territory they cover: “A” tickets are valid for 90 min.,
“B” – 120 min., and “C” – 240 min.
You have to punch your ticket near the place you take the train, tube (U-Bahn) or
directly in the bus with machines like the one on the picture.
Even though nobody checks your tickets (except buses) when you enter the public
transport you should have one. You have to pay 60,- € in case you don’t have it
when checked.
Registration at the International Office
In order to be enrolled at Fachhochschule Dortmund and become a student officially you need
to register at the International Office. For that you will need:
 Enrolment form – deposited at the Faculty Exchange Point


Contract for your apartment/room
Health insurance certificate – there are two most popular insurance companies TK and
AOK, both can be found at Campus Nord. There is no big difference between these companies. The monthly payments are about 77, - €.
Please note! Before making an insurance contract you should have a contract for your
room/apartment and open a bank account in a German bank (insurance payment will be withdrawn from it).

Bank account can be opened for free up to a certain age; this varies between 26-28
years, depending on the bank. There are two banks on Campus Nord: Sparkasse Dortmund and Volksbank Dortmund.

Proof of paid tuition fees – you can make either a money transfer from your new bank
account, or you can pay with cash in any other bank but it will cost about 7.50 €.
The International Office is located in the Sonnenstraße 96:
You have to get to the station “Dortmund-Möllerbrücke” by S-Bahn (city train) or U-Bahn (subway) and walk along Sonnenstraße for 5 min.

You also need to register at Dortmund city council. Non-EU students need to request a visa application during the first three weeks. – Forms are deposited at the Faculty Exchange Point.
Activation of FH identification
After the successful enrolment you will get a letter
“Informationen zu den IT-Diensten für Studierende”,
which contains the following information:
 FH-Kennung
 Passwort
 E-Mail
You need this information in order to activate
your FH Identification.
Proceed as follows:
Go to: http://www.fh-dortmund.de/selbstverwaltung
Please log in with your FH-Kennung and password.
Then click on “Anmelden”.
Now you are asked to define safety questions so that
you can reset your password if you forget your
registration data somehow.
Answer the given questions, e.g.:
Since when are you a member of the Fachhochschule
Dortmund? (Year)
Afterwards create individual questions. Like “In which town were you born?”
Or “What is your favourite holiday country?”
Now click on the item “Passwort ändern”.
There you can change your initial password to a password of
your choice.
Your password needs to have the following characteristics:
 minimum no. of characters: 7
 maximum no. of characters: 50
 the use of capital and small initial letters will be differentiated
 you can’t use & and §
Then click on the button “Passwort ändern”.
Your new password will be synchronised with the connected systems. The newly assigned
password belongs to your FH Identification now and is valid for the following services:
ODS (Online Services for Students)

To access the ODS, go to https://ods.fh-dortmund.de/ods
Sign up with your FH identification and the corresponding password.
Then click on “Anmelden”.
Please take care to activate your ODS account as soon as possible after enrolment, since most
of administrative issues are operated with this system.
Semesterticket
As a first step in ODS, print your Semesterticket which provides free public transportation. It can
be printed easily with a usual printer.
With “Semesterticket” you can travel through whole North Rhine Westphalia on regional
transport (RE trains, S-Bahn, U-Bahn and buses) in 2nd class, but with the ticket you are not
allowed to travel for free by ICE and IC or in 1st class of regional transport.
You can take one person with you weekdays after 7:00 pm and on weekends in the VVR area, it
includes Essen, Dusseldorf and many other cities.
(http://www.vrr.de/imperia/md/content/fahrten/verkehrsplaene/nrw_regionalverkehrsplan.pd
f)
For finding out how to get to a certain station or even street and to know at what time the departure is, use http://www.vrr.de/en/index.html
For checking the trains in whole Germany: http://www.bahn.com/i/view/index.shtml
When traveling with “Semesterticket” you should always have an identification document with
you (either FH-card or passport).
FH Card
For the issuing of FH-card (student ID) it is necessary to activate
your ODS account (see above). Afterwards you need to upload a
digital portrait picture of yourself in ODS and select “FHcard” on
the right to order your FH-card.
After a few days the FH-card will be ready and you will either
receive an email announcement where to pick it up personally or
it will be send to you by regular mail.
Then you will also get your personal PIN. Please take your passport with you when picking it up!
If you have any problems, please ask the students from the FEP for help.
Access to StudWebMailer
To receive access to your emails, which have been sent to your
“@stud.fh-dortmund.de”-address, go to the following website:
https://studwebmailer.fh-dortmund.de
Log in with your FH identification and the corresponding password. Then click on the button “Anmelden”. Please note that the
registration implies the change of your initial password.
WiFi access
The following instruction illustrates the WiFi “eduroam”. Eduroam (EducationRoaming) is an
international roaming access service, which allows to log on to the WiFi by using the username
and the corresponding password. Here it is necessary that the username is activated on
“eduroam”.
For FH-Dortmund’s users the access to WiFi is only possible with the FH-identification provided
by the Identity Management.
The following general data needs to be configured for WPA/WPA2:
Network name (SSID): eduroam
Login: [email protected] (e.g. [email protected])
Password: The password which belongs to your FH-identification
Security: WPA-Enterprise or WPA2-Enterprise
Encoding: AES
EAP method: PEAP
Phase 2 authentication: EAP-MSCHAP v2
If you are located with your mobile phone on the campus choose the network “eduroam”.
Type in your FH-identification as login, followed by the addition “@fh-dortmund.de”
e.g. “[email protected]”
Enter your corresponding password.
WiFi via VPN
The VPN-Client (Virtual Private Network Client) activates a safe channel connection between
your computer and the FH’s network. You will need this Client, if you wish to use for example
services at home that are only available from the FH-network.
Mostly it is used for digital media provided by the library. These media can only be seen, if you
are logged on to the FH-network or if a channel connection via VPN is activated.
Please install the VPN-Client software first: https://vpngate.fh-dortmund.de.
If the installation was successful, open the website.
Please enter your FH-identification provided by the Identity Management and your corresponding password.
Depending on the operating system and the installed
software or security settings of the browser, an automatic
installation is now in process, which downloads and configures the client and logs on the user immediately.
If the requirements are not given or the permissions are
not granted, the adjacent link opens.
After starting the software, please type in:
“vpngate.fh-dortmund.de” and click on the button
“Connect”.
Prospectively you need to enter your user data (FHidentification with corresponding password) at this
point.
Devices with sophisticated operating systems are able to build a VPN connection with on-board
means without the additional VPN client software.
These include for instance Mac OS X, Linux, and Android. Illustrated instructions can be found
on: http://www.fh-dortmund.de/de/hs/hit/service/wlan/sslvpn_fhdo.php (on the right)
In case of further IT-related questions or problems, you may also consult our Help Desk of the IT
Department (room EF44_069).

ILIAS is FH-Dortmund’s learning platform. Many professors use this learning platform to provide
course- and lecture materials, to administer their courses or to communicate with the students.
To access ILIAS, go to http://ilias.fh-dortmund.de
Sign up with your FH identification and the corresponding password.
For any further problems there is an ILIAS help desk situated in the FH library (EF 44).
