TUCard

You will receive a one-off TUCard when you enrol.

The TUCard is an electronic card on which your data is stored visibly and electronically. In addition to the photo, some information about the cardholder is shown on the card: Surname, first name, matriculation/personal number, as well as the (first) degree program including the degree sought and the current semester. On the back of the TUCard you will find your library number and your personal seven-digit card number; if the card is lost or unusable, the Studierendenwerk can use this number to transfer any existing credit to the new card. You should make a note of this number and keep it with your documents.

Staff and students can use the TUCard to pay in the canteen or borrow books from the library, for example.

Students can also use the TUCard to identify themselves for exams, pay at laundry machines in the halls of residence or at photocopiers.
The TUCard can be topped up with up to 150.00 euros in the canteen and at the Studierendenwerk ServiceCenter.

The following institutions are involved in the "TUCard" project:

The TUCard is valid for a limited period of time and requires regular updating (validation). Students must always validate their card themselves after re-registration at the corresponding machine in the foyer of the main building so that the validity is extended until the end of the next semester.

If you have lost your card or something similar, please submit the relevant application for a new card together with proof of payment after you have paid the fees incurred to the Studierendenwerk. In this context, we would like to point out that the card blank alone has a not inconsiderable price and that further costs are also incurred for validation and printing.

Employees who require a TUCard should also submit the application for initial issue or the application for new issue. Since the creation of the TUCard is free of charge for employees, no receipt from the Studierendenwerk is necessary, so that the application can be submitted directly to the Student Secretariat.
