Help in case of emergency
In the event of accidents or other emergency situations, it is important to react quickly and take the right measures to rescue people or contain the danger. Only the rapid reaction of the people present and a well-functioning rescue chain can prevent an acute deterioration and possible consequential damage in an emergency.
At RUB, the rescue chain begins with a call to the RUB Control Room:
Telephone number: +49 234 32 23333 (e.g. from a cell phone)
In a RUB building outside the central campus, please dial the emergency number 112 for the fire department/ambulance or 110 for the police. Afterwards, please also inform the RUB Control room about the emergency (phone number: +49 234 32 23333).

Ruhr-University Bochum has an efficient emergency management system. RUB's objectives in an emergency or crisis situation are always
- Averting danger to life and limb
- Rapid provision of interfaces to the emergency response organizations
- Establish prompt availability of necessary resources
- Clear internal and external communication
Deployment levels have been defined to enable an appropriate and graduated response to different emergency and crisis scenarios. Which operational level applies in a specific case depends on the extent of the incident. This also determines which levels of the RUB reporting chain are involved. First of all, the RUB Control Room must be notified of all emergencies by calling +49 234 32 23333. The RUB Control Room will then call the head of the technical readiness (dt. LTB). In the case of level 2 incidents, the LTB can involve the on-call service at management level (dt. BDL). In the event of major incidents, the BDL would then convene the RUB Crisis Management Team.
