Important Information:
Note that there are buildings throughout the entire city that are part of the Universidad de Sevilla. So, if you are trying to locate it on a map, you must indicate that you are going to the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales. If you simply enter Universidad de Sevilla, you will end up at the administration building, which while lovely and historic, is not where the conference is.
The street address of the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales is Avenida Ramón y Cajal, 1. It is right across the street from the San Bernardo stop of the tram, metro, and bus line.
How to get there:
TUSSAM bus lines: C1, C2, 5, 22, 25, 26, 70, and A5
Metro: Line 1, San Bernardo Station
Train: San Bernardo Station
Location of Events (See Attached Plans): /userfiles/planosfacultadEdited.pdf
The plenary session on Monday will take place in the Salon de Actos of the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales. As shown in the attached map, if you enter the courtyard area from the main entrance, the Salon de Actos will be to your right. It is a trapezoid-shaped building which from the outside, looks like a giant bleacher (my take, anyway). The entrance is close to the street (Avda Ramón y Cajal).
The coffee breaks and lunches will be in the cafeteria inside the main building. From the courtyard, this will be the far right corner of the building.
The concurrent sessions and workshops will be held in classrooms on the 3rd and 4th floors of the main building, along the far hallway (i.e., the opposite side of the atrium from where you enter the main building). There are elevators and stairways on both the right and left sides of the main building.
Our gala dinner will be at Muelle 21 Restaurante, located on Avenida Santiago Montoto, adjacent to the Seville Aquarium. It is around a 30 minute walk from the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales.
Getting Around Sevilla - Sevilla is a very walkable city. In addition, there is a tram, metro, and bus station across the street from the Faculty of Business building.
Cultural Norms – Tipping is not expected, though a few coins as a token of gratitude is always welcome. Spanish meal times are unique. Breakfast is generally something light around 10:00am; lunch, which is usually the biggest meal of the day is between 2:00 and 4:00pm; dinner is generally 9:00 – 11:00pm. Note that unless you are in the more tourist-heavy areas, it can be difficult to find a place to eat between 4:00pm and 9:00pm.
