Getting There

Conference Venue

The University of Warwick is located approximately three miles from the centre of Coventry (not in Warwick). General information about how to get to the University, including transport links from airports and surrounding residential areas, can be found here.

Information for international visitors can be found here.

Below is a map of central campus with the most relevant areas clearly marked (you can also download it following this link.

The conference is currently aiming to support graduate speakers with their travel costs, but if funding for this expenditure is available from your home institution we strongly encourage you to explore that possibility.

Travel by Train

There are two ways of getting to campus. The first is by travelling to Coventry. Outside the station (Rail Station Bridge, stop WR6) catch the National Express bus 12X which travels onto main campus. These run roughly every 10-15 minutes, cost three pounds and will take you to the University in about 10-15 minutes.

Alternatively, you can travel to Leamington Spa railway station and then taking a U1, U2 or number 11 bus to the University. These buses are equally frequent. With the main entrance to Leamington station behind you, cross the road towards the opposite corner, and walk towards the overhead railway bridge, past the old pub on the corner. The bus stop is easy to see and anyone can direct you. It takes between 20 and 30 minutes and it is clear when you have arrived. Click here for timetables

Travel by Car

If you are travelling by car, take the A46 to Coventry from the motorway. Do not turn off at Leamington Spa or Warwick – the University is located on the outskirts of Coventry. Follow signs for Warwick Arts Centre (our cinema and theatre complex), which is clearly signposted about one third of a mile before the turn off. At the turn off, stay in the left hand lane which takes you left only. Keep following Arts Centre or University signs for the next 10 minutes and you will arrive at the Warwick campus. There are various pay-and-display car parks available.
