The workshop will be held in the Bissinger room located on the 4th floor of the Howe Center. The Howe Center is on the northeast part of the Stevens campus and is the tallest building. No 19 in the campus map.

Stevens is located in Hoboken, New Jersey – ranked one of the top college towns in the nation by The Princeton Review – offers a variety of boutiques, restaurants, parks, and nightlife, as well as beautiful Victorian brownstones and marvelous architecture.

New York City is so close by – just 10 minutes from Hoboken’s historic train station to lower Manhattan – that opportunities for exposure to the culture, business, and entertainment of that tremendous city abound.

We recommend that you use public transportation to get to Stevens.
