Hotel

The Stevanovich Center is booking and pre-paying rooms for non-local speakers. Speakers are welcome to arrive one day prior to the start of the conference, and leave one day after the end of the conference.

Unless pre-approved by the Dean of the Physical Science Division, Economy Premium, B-Class or First-Class tickets will be reimbursed based on an economy average ticket price.

Once you’ve booked your tickets, feel free to share your itinerary with our event organizer so that we know when to expect you!
