Conference Location

 

The location of the conference is Worcester College, one of the colleges of the University of Oxford. The College is located very close to the train and coach stations, and only a few minutes' walk away from the city and university centres.  Oxford itself is easily reached by coach, train or car from several international airports – London Heathrow and Gatwick as well as Birmingham International. Central London is 60 minutes away by train and 90 minutes by coach.

Although close to the centre of Oxford the College provides a secluded environment with extensive and beautiful  gardens. The residential accommodation ranges from picturesque 15th-century monks' cottages to award-winning modern rooms. The original college on the present site was founded as Gloucester College in 1283 as a place of study for Benedictine monks. The college was re-founded in 1714 as Worcester College and is one of the self-governing institutions that makes up the present-day University of Oxford.
