Conference venue and directions
The conference will take place at Uni Bastions or nearby; precise
room to be announced.
To get there from the airport, the simplest and
quickest way is to take a train. Follow the sign "Geneve - Centre" at
the airport train station and take any train, they all trains stop at
the main train station (first stop). Then take the tram as indicated
below — or walk from there: it's a nice
20 min walk through the Mont Blanc bridge.
Duration/price: 40 min, ticket 3 CHF or 2eur to be bought at
the airport train station. The ticket covers the tram journey as
well.
To get there from the train station, take trams
13 or 15 direction Palettes to Plainpalais. (10 mins, ticket 3 CHF or
2eur to be bought at the tram stop.)
To move around in Geneva, the simplest way by far
is to use public transportation - and if you have booked an
hotel in Geneva, they have to provide you with a free day
pass for all public transportation, do not forget to ask for
it. The public transport company (TPG) have a useful route planner.The
locations of the bus and tramway stops around the department and the
main university building (Bastions) are indicated on the following
plan, which is downloadable as gif, pdf and jpg
(courtesy eidos!).
