RLSS 2026 takes place in the Città Studi area of Milan, at two Politecnico di Milano classrooms. Use these links rather than searching for the university generically.
-
Aula Emilio Gatti - DEIB, Building 20
Aula Emilio Gatti, Politecnico di Milano, Via Giuseppe Ponzio 34/5, 20133 Milano MI. Enter the DEIB area from the narrow road at number 34/5. Building 20 is opposite the Giuriati Sports Center entrance. The classroom is the DEIB conference room named Aula Emilio Gatti. DEIB directions -
Aula 3.0.3 - Building 3
Aula 3.0.3, Politecnico di Milano, Via Celoria 1, 20133 Milano MI. The room is in Building 3, on the ground floor. Official Polimi directions
The two classrooms are a short walk from each other, so most public transport options work for both.
By metro
The easiest option is usually the M2 green line. Get off at Piola.
For Aula Emilio Gatti, take the left exit from Piola, follow Via D'Ovidio to Via Spinoza, keep left and cross Via Bonardi into Piazza Leonardo da Vinci. Turn left and follow Via Bonardi. At the traffic light, cross the street, turn right into Via Ponzio, then take the first narrow road on the left. Go straight to number 34/5. Building 20 is inside the DEIB area.
For Aula 3.0.3, take the left exit from Piola, follow Via D'Ovidio to Via Spinoza, keep left and cross Via Bonardi into Piazza Leonardo da Vinci. The Politecnico main campus is in front of you. Go to Via Celoria 1, enter Building 3 and follow signs to Aula 3.0.3 on the ground floor.
You can also use Lambrate FS on the M2 line. It is useful if you arrive by regional train or if your route is better connected through Lambrate. From there, walk or take a short bus/tram connection toward Via Ponzio for Aula Emilio Gatti or Via Celoria for Aula 3.0.3.
If you arrive from Linate airport or from the east side of the city, M4 Argonne is another convenient stop. From Argonne, both classrooms are about a 10-15 minute walk.

- From Milano Centrale, take metro M2 toward Cologno Nord, Gessate or Cascina Gobba and get off at Piola.
