Take Public Transportation

A trip planner for public transportation information can be found at 511.org. AC Transit and Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) are the two providers.

Take the Shuttle

There is also a weekday campus shuttle (Perimeter or Central Campus; $1 for non-affiliates) that leaves from the east side of Shattuck Ave. north of Center St., just across from the downtown Berkeley BART station

Enjoy a Walk

Alternatively, it is a 10-minute walk up through our beautiful campus from downtown Berkeley. Head towards the Campanile, as shown on the UCB Visitor Center map, and then left toward the Hearst Mining Circle. Steps to the left of the Hearst Memorial Mining Building lead up to the courtyard between Sutardja Dai and Cory Halls.

Drive to Campus

Driving Directions

Visitor parking. There is little public parking in the area, though sometimes short-term residential parking is available. If you are visiting for a specific meeting, your host may be able to arrange a parking permit. There are a few public parking spaces on the second floor of the lower Hearst parking lot, opening from Scenic Avenue. If you arrive later in the day, these are likely to be filled.

Invitation to Prospective Students and Families

At the northeast corner of the campus, you will find Cory and Soda Halls, homes of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, with campus dormitories right across the street.
