How to get here

You can download our campus map here.

There is also some useful information on our travel pages. Unfortunately we are unable to book parking spaces on open days.

The School of Maths building (number 26 on first website above) is next to the Edward Boyle Library and opposite the Roger Stevens Lecture Theatre block.  Once you are in the School of Maths (which is on levels 7 (ground floor), 8, 9, 10 and 11) there are floor plans at the bottom of each set of stairs.  Alternatively, if you come into the main School of Maths Reception (which is just down from the Edward Boyle Library and opposite the School of Computing), then colleagues on Reception can direct you to the Maths MALL 1 Room - room 8.20d on level 8.
