How to find us on campus
The Institute of Information Resource Management is located at level 5 of building O26 at the campus of the University Ulm East.
Most simply you reach us if you take the tram or bus (tram no. 2 towards "Science Park II", bus no. 5 and no. 15 towards "Wissenschaftsstadt") and leave the bus at the bus stop "Universität Süd" (see overview map). Cross the roundabout and take the stairs up the the entrance. From there you get via a stairway or elevator behind the cafeteria on level 5 of the building in the Institute of Information Resource Management. The secretariat has the room number 5209 located at the facilities of the KIZ.
Staying overnight
Convenient bus connections are available from almost all hotels in the city center to the university.
The ibis hotel (single room is about 65 € per night) as well as the ibis budget (ETAP) hotel (single room is about 50 € per night) are situated at the bus stop “Theater” where tram no.2 or bus no. 5 take you in approx. 10 minutes to the University. Likewise from the hotel Intercity the University is reachable with the same bus nos. in approx. 12 minutes. If you book a hotel room at the hotel IBIS or at the Intercity Hotel ask for specific conditions for guests of the University. These could be cheaper than the normal rates which depends on how early you make your reservation.
If you would like to spend your nights at a 4-star hotel you can book a room at Maritim Ulm. From there the arrival to the University will take a little more time. Directly in front of the hotel on the opposite side of the street is the bus stop for bus no. 6 located. These busses are heading directly for “Universität Süd”.
At the bus stop “Universität Süd” you have to exit the bus and change to bus no. 5. Another 4-star option would be the LAGO, with an again longer travel time to the University (but therefore it has a very good restaurant - michelin star). To travel to the University take the tram (line 1 - Direction "Söflingen") and change at "Theater" to lines 3 or 5 as described above.
If you are staying at a different hotel, use the local public transport map or the Deutsche Bahn widget on the right to find suitable bus connections to the university.
