Metro system (maps, prices and route planner)
There is a metro station nearby the campus (Juan de la Cierva Station), which you might consider to travel to/from other towns (e.g., Alcorcon and Leganes) located in the southern metropolitan area of Madrid. - If you travel by car, we recommend using a GPS with the address or the coordinates given above. There are many highways passing nearby the campus, one of them is highway A42 (Madrid-Toledo), which you can take from the center of Madrid.E.g., from Plaza Imperador Carlos V (Atocha station), follow the signs to A42, direction Toledo, and drive straight until exit 10, then exit and follow the purple signs to UC3M. After 2 minutes you will get to Calle Madrid in Getafe, with the conference venue on your left hand, soon after the first traffic light in that road. To park, you can use the free UC3M parking located in Calle Maestro Pablo Guzman: just turn right before the traffic light (see google maps link).
