The university halls on campus have student run bars which are open on particular nights of the week, these are good places to meet other foreign students and also German students with whom u can practice your language skills. I found the atmosphere to be relaxed and friendly. There are many cafe's, bars and nightclubs in the city centre, these are easily accessible by train which runs directly from and to the university campus into the centre. The university itself holds many events, to suit everyones needs and not to be missed is the Weihnachtsmarkt in Dortmund which houses the largest christmas tree in Europe.

Unfortunately we spent a lot of time at the Irish Bar. The Nitelife outside that wasn't great in Dortmund. We did make the effort and go out with German students to their "locals" but it was never as much fun as the Irish bar!!
