Facilities
What our visitors have to say about our facilities:
"World-class facilities. Could not have wished for anything better." "ICMS may well be the nicest venue for workshops in the UK now."
"Great views from the window and an abundance of blackboards!"
"It's a fancy institute with top-of-the-line facilities in the middle of Edinburgh, one of the most beautiful cities ever. What kind of dummy would think this wasn't a good setting for a workshop?"
ICMS is located in the award-winning Bayes Centre which opened in 2018. We have a flexible space designed to meet the many and diverse needs of the mathematical sciences. We have blackboards, seminar rooms, video conferencing, space to think and work in small groups and the most inspiring views.
