BCTCS will take place at the University of Strathclyde campus in central Glasgow. Talks will take place in room TL325 in the Learning and Teaching Building (49 Richmond Street) with coffee and lunches taking place next door in rooms TL324 (Monday) and TL328 (Tuesday and Wednesday). There will be signs directing you from the entrance of the building.
A schedule can be found here. The first talk on Monday morning to 10.30am (with registration and coffee before), and the last talk on Wednesday to finishes just before 5pm. Wednesday afternoon has a special focus on Theoretical Computer Science Education.
We have booked at table Tuesday evening 7pm at Nonna Said, a nearby Napoli-style pizza place with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. We will send out a form for pre-orders to participants on Monday 7 April, which we need to communicate to the restaurant by Friday 11 April. The dinner is not included in the registration fee, and we will collect cash payment for the dinner during registration (we can of course give you a receipt if needed).
There are many hotels in and around the city centre, as well as some hostels. The very nearest hotels to the university are:
The Premier Inns at St Enoch Square and particularly Glasgow City Centre South (just south of the River Clyde), are a bit further away (~25 min walk for the latter), but are normally cheaper than their George Square counterpart.
For those willing to share a dorm, the Revolver Hotel (private rooms also available) may be worth a look.
The University of Strathclyde is located short walks away from both Glasgow Queen Street train station (five minutes) and Glasgow Central train station (10 minutes). See National Rail for train times and connections. PhD students might save money by getting a 16–25 railcard.
