limited number of university guest house appartments of different
sizes available should you travel with partner or family. For
options and rates on guest house appartments, please contact Anja Müller directly and as early as possible.Lecture Room
The lectures take place in the Campus Center IRC Seminar Room (4-302).The campus center is easy to find. It's the building shown on
the left banner picture which is located - well - at the center of
campus. The seminar room is not easy to find. From the
campus center foyer, enter the library (also known as Information
Resource Center or short IRC) and take the open stairs or the
elevator to the first floor. You are now on the main library floor.
There are two side wings attached to it, go to and enter the east
wing reading room which is the one further away from the open stair
case. The seminar room is now to your left.
Speakers should note that there is a data projector and a small
white board, but no major black board setup. Speakers who prefer
giving a black board talk should talk to us well beforehand.
