The workshop will take place in the lecture rooms 101 and 102 (first floor), Veterinärstraße 1, close to the department of statistics (Ludwigstraße 33, 80539 Munich).
Directions for public transportation to the Department can be

Munich is easily reachable by air, rail and road.
- If you arrive by air at Munich Airport,
the easiest way into the city is by light rail ("S-Bahn"). The station is
located in the basement of Terminal 1, which is served by the lines
S 1 and S 8 going both to the city centre in approx. 40 minutes.
If you plan to make more than one trip by public transport on your day of arrival,
we recommend to buy an Adult single day ticket / all zones ("Single-Tageskarte / Gesamtnetz")
which is 11,00 EUR. Otherwise, a single ticket to any destination in the city
("Einzelfahrkarte / 4 Zonen") is 10,00 EUR (9,60 EUR cashless).
If you are group of two or more, we recommend to buy an
Adult partner day ticket / all zones ("Partnertagesticket / Gesamtnetz") costing 20,00 EUR,
which is valid for up to five persons.
Tickets must be purchased at the ticket machines on the
ground floor of the airport near the top end of the escalators down to the light rail station.
There is no ticket purchase in the train. Tickets must be validated / stamped before
entering the train using the small blue stamping machines at the platform.
For details on the Munich public transport system, see the following list item.
- If you arrive by train at Munich central station ("München Hauptbahnhof"),
a single ticket to all destinations in the city ("Einzelfahrkarte / 1 Zone") is 2,50 EUR.
If you plan to make more than two trips by public transport per day,
a day ticket ("Single-Tageskarte") is commendable. If you travel in a group, a partner day ticket
("Partnertagesticket", valid for up to five persons) is available as well.
There are also three-day versions of these tickets.
For all destinations inside the city, the inner district ("Innenraum") versions of the

ticket 13,80 EUR. The partner day ticket is 10,20 EUR, the partner 3-day ticket is 23,70 EUR (both valid for up to five persons).
