The 20th Israeli Conference on Plasma Science and Applications - 29 January 2018

Location & Arrival

Tel Aviv University, Room 011 of the Engineering Studies Classroom Building.

The location of the Engineering Studies Classroom Building may be see on the campus map. It is on the right side of the map, adjacent to Gate 17 (after entering via Gate 17 and walking north, in the direction of center campus, it is the 1st building on the right side).

There is no parking on-campus, and the parking near the campus is generally very difficult. There are pay parking lots adjacent to the campus. The closest is the “Social Work” parking lot, shown on the campus map as George Wise Car Park – East. There is currently ongoing construction in this lot, and it fills up early. Probably the best bet is Smolarz Parking (to the west of Gate 17 and the Social Work School). Cost is NIS 24/day.

It is preferable to arrive via public transportation:

Buses

The campus is served by numerous bus routes, listed below according to the two main bus companies, Egged and Dan.

Egged routes: 271, 572, 274.

Dan routes:  7, 13, 25, 54, 127, 24, 289, 6.

(Bus schedules and routes are subject to change. Please check with the bus companies for the latest information.)

Trains
