Location

It is directly connected with the A-line metro terminus (bus 20): A-line is the subway that connects all the major monuments in Rome, including the Colosseum and the Vatican Museums. A shuttle will be organized in the morning and in the evening for an even smoother connection between the A-subway terminus “Anagnina” and the location of the ICEIV 2024 Conference, hosted at the Department of Enterprise Engineering “Mario Lucertini”.

The campus is located in the quiet and spacious area of the south-eastern boundary of Rome, far from the crowds of the touristic locations.
