Mobility at Campus

As of the winter semester 2023/24, in Bavaria the Deutschlandticket for students has replaced the previous semester ticket. The ticket is only offered on a subscription basis and currently costs 38 euros per month. It allows the use of local transport throughout Germany.

Please note: Deutschlandtickets for students issued by MVG automatically expire at the end of the semester. To renew the subscription, you must upload proof of enrollment for the following semester to the MVG customer portal. Further information on the Deutschlandticket for students can be found at the Munich transport company MVG.

From the winter semester 2024/25, the semester ticket for students at Heilbronn campus will also no longer be available. Besides the Deutschlandticket, students under the age of 27 in Baden-Württemberg can also purchase a price-reduced annual ticket for local public transport. For more information, visit the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Transport page.

All TUM campuses are easily accessible by public transportation. Overviews of the stops and timetable information are available from the respective providers:

• Munich, Garching, and Weihenstephan: Münchner Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund (MVV)
• Straubing: Stadtwerke Straubing
• Heilbronn: Heilbronner Hohenloher Haller Nahverkehr (HNV)

A bike is often the best means of transportation to get from home to the university or from the lecture hall to the cafeteria. There are numerous bike stands, air pumps, and repair stations at the TUM campuses. You will find an overview here shortly. In addition, MVG and the Student Union also support mobility on two wheels at TUM:

• MVG Rad provides rental bikes in Munich and Garching – also to the TUM campuses. Here you can find overviews of the stations in Munich and the stations in Garching.
• The initiative ReparadTUM of the Environmental Department TUM’s Student Council regularly offers self-help workshops for bike repair at the Garching campus. More info and all dates can be found on the Instagram page of ReparadTUM.
