The university moved into a new building in 2010 after years of operating in multiple buildings. The new building is at Menntavegur 1 (translates to Education-road 1). The main building is near the city centre and sits next to the domestic airport, just below one of Reykjavik’s Landmarks, Perlan<\/a>, and just next to Nauth\u00f3lsv\u00edk<\/a>, Icelands’s only heated beach.
Yes, you read that right, Icelanders are so desperate to escape the cold weather they created an artificial warm lagoon (38.5\u00b0C) with white sand brought in regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference main auditorium will be in Nauth\u00f3ll<\/a>. A few sessions will however be hosted in the main university building. The Music meets Science cultural event<\/a> is hosted in room V101, starting at 15:00 on day 1 of the conference. The poster and demonstrations session, starting at 16:00 on day 1, as well as the IVAR4B special session<\/a>, starting at 17:45 on day 1, will be held in the Sun (university’s’ foyer as is seen in right most image above). Information on how to navigate to RU can be found here<\/a> and the RU website also has a map of the building here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
