University of California, San Diego: The Institution
Innovation is
our tradition: Nestled along the Pacific Ocean on 1,200 acres of coastal
woodland, UCSD is a powerful magnet for those seeking a fresh,
next-generation approach to education and research. Since its founding
over four decades ago, UCSD -- one of the ten campuses in the
world-renowned University of California system -- has rapidly achieved the
status as one of the top institutions in the nation for higher education
and research. UCSD’s interdisciplinary ethos and tradition of innovation
and risk-taking, underlie its research strength and ability to recruit top
scholars and students.

Parking
IOA will provide bus transportation to and from the hotel and UCSD for
conference participants. Please be aware that parking on campus on
weekdays can be very difficult! Finding parking on campus during
Monday-Friday between 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM can be quite challenging and may
actually delay your getting to conference events on time. However, if
you are interested in parking your car on the UCSD campus during the IOA
conference, you may purchase short term weekday permits at $6.00/day and
$3.00/evening. You have the option of ordering permits on line through
the UCSD Bookstore and either having them mailed to you in advance, or
picking them up at the Bookstore Customer Service counter when you
arrive. The bookstore is open 7 days/week. To order on line and for
store hours, go to
http://bookstore.ucsd.edu
and click on parking permits. You are encouraged to visit the UCSD
Parking Office website at
http://parking.ucsd.edu
for further information about permits, and about parking rules and
regulations. You may purchase permits at the Parking Office; however,
it must be handled in person during the hours of 7:00 AM - 5:30 PM,
Monday-Friday only.
