The scientific part of the conference will be held at the new University Campus Complex in the Old Industrial Area «VonRoll» put into operation in 2013. The lecture centre with a shopping-mall atmosphere stimulates scientific discourse and sharing of knowledge. Seven fully equipped lecture halls, as well as rooms for workshops and poster sessions are available in short distance.
