Workshop Navigation

Welcome to the COSMOS Hackathon and Public Speaking Workshop navigation assistance!

All sessions are in UCL Institute of Education, 20 Bedford Way, London WC1H 0AL (map can be seen on the Hackathon page).

The Hackathon is in Room 425 - PC Lab 2. The Public Speaking workshop is in Room W2.06.

It should be noted that when you arrive you must report to the Reception Desk to be allowed into the building (obviously, UCL people can use ID cards for access!).

It is also worth noting the IOE is not a simple building to navigate. The IOE (Whitty) Wing Levels 2 and 3 do not directly connect to the main part of the building, but Levels 1 and 4 do (for example!)

Arriving at IOE Main Entrance

Selecting an image in the slide show will open the image in higher resolution.

This entrance is on Level 3 of the building. After Reception, immediately turn right, walk past the coffee shop counter and up the stairs. The corridor doors to the Hackathon room are on the right. Go straight ahead and left to reach the rear entrance (and starting point for directions to Public Speaking Workshop room).

Arriving at IOE Rear Entrance

This entrance is on Level 4 of the building. For the Hackathon room, turn left from reception, then right and the corridor doors are on the left. For the Public Speaking Workshop, turn right after reception and follow the directions below.

Access to the Hackathon Workroom

Through the doors, past the lifts and water fountain, through the next set of double doors and the room is immediately on the right.

Access to the Public Speaking Workshop Room

This is a bit of an adventure… Facing away from the rear entrance, turn right and follow the landing to the end until you reach a picture of Geoff Whitty - the walls are painted 2 shades of beige with orange and green details. Go through the triple door and down the stairs to the floor 3 landing. Take the set of double doors to the right, just past the fire extinguisher, to another stairwell and go down one floor. On floor 2, take the (nicer looking) door to the left and immediately turn left. Go through the door ahead, turn right and follow the corridor until the first left. Turn left and the room is the second door on the right.

Keep your eye out for signs to W201-208 and there are a couple of maps on walls along the way.
