In the summer of 2012, Aalborg University of Copenhagen took over Nokia’s former buildings on A.C. Meyers Vænge and Frederikskaj – and the establishment of a campus in Sydhavnen in Copenhagen became a reality. Today Nokia’s former commercial buildings have been transformed into a world class university campus with an attractive student community, laboratories, group rooms, etc.
The campus is composed of three buildings facing the harbour, and an iconic single arch bridge connecting buildings A and B.
The network Eduroam is available in all the buildings of the campus. Alternatively, you can use the AAU-1-DAY wireless guest-network. Please note that the password will be available on location and will change every day at midnight.
Key locations
The conference will be hosted in the auditorium (room 1.008) of building A, floor 1 (the same as the main entrance).
We recommend the interactive map of the campus, available as a webpage here or in the AAU Map app for Android and iOS.
The area
Sydhavnen, a former fishing area of the city, is experiencing a great architectural boom with modern apartments and canals inspired by the Java district in Amsterdam.
Concert Hall
