*** flying to Düsseldorf ("DUS") airport is convenient; the train connections from the airport to Duisburg Hbf are very frequent.
*** flying into Frankfurt ("FRA"), and then taking an ICE train from the airport to Duisburg also works very well. In particular, Lufthansa offers combined flight+train tickets between Düsseldorf HBf ("QDU"; NOT Düsseldorf airport!) and Frankfurt airport. The combined ticket is advantageous because the train part of the trip as another flight (eg., in case of delays or cancellations). Sometimes, the ICE from Frankfurt to QDU actually continues all the way to Bochum. Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to confirm this online; for some reason, Lufthansa and Deutsche Bahn try their absolute best to hide this information. However, you could ask the conductor once you are actually on the train, and if it indeed goes to Bochum then you just buy the necessary extra ticket while onboard and that’s that.
