LOGISTICAL INFORMATION FOR VENICE
I. DOCTORATE VENUE
The Doctorate will be held in the Department of Economics of the Ca' Foscari University of Venice. The Department of Economics is located at the entrance of the San Giobbe Campus and is easy to reach from either the Marco Polo Venice Airport or the Venice Santa Lucia train station or the Piazzale Roma Venice road taxi and bus terminal.
From the Marco Polo Venice Airport
From the Marco Polo Venice Airport the easiest and cheapest way to reach the centre of Venice is taking the Alilaguna waterbus, a direct service between the Marco Polo Airport and the Venice centre. In order to get to the San Giobbe Campus take the orange line (Linea ARANCIO) of the Alilaguna waterbus leaving at 9:45; 10:45; 11:45; 12:45; 13:45, 14:45, 15:45, 16:45 and get off at "GUGLIE". The journey time is approximately 1 hour and the ticket costs € 12,00. Further information about the Alilaguna waterbus is available at: http://www.alilaguna.com/. From the waterbus stop "GUGLIE" please follow the route on the map.
In case you arrive at the Marco Polo Venice Airport when the last Alilaguna waterbus to "GUGLIE" (16:45) is already left, you can take the ACTV road bus n° 5 (orange bus) or ATVO road bus (blue bus) that end at Piazzale Roma road taxi and bus terminal. Both buses leave from the platforms outside the arrival hall of the Airport. The drive takes approx. 25 minutes. Information about the timetable and prices is available in the ACTV web-site at http://www.actv.it/ and in the ATVO web-site at http://www.atvo.it/.
From Piazzale Roma road taxi and bus terminal and from the Venice Santa Lucia train station
The San Giobbe Campus is easy to reach by walking from Piazzale Roma road taxi and bus terminal and from the Venice Santa Lucia train station. The walking distance is about 15-20 minutes. Please refer to the map.
Otherwise it is possible to get to the San Giobbe Campus either from the train station or from Piazzale Roma with the ACTV waterbus route no. 42 (getting off at the stop "CREA") or with route no. 52 (getting off at the stop "TRE ARCHI"). In both cases the San Giobbe Campus is just a short 5 minute walk from the stop. For more information and the route timetables refer to the ACTV website http://www.actv.it/.
