Kolkata, the largest metropolitan city in Eastern India, is a major hub for both international air connectivity and national railway networks. The city is well-served by frequent domestic and international flights and is a key junction for long-distance trains across the country. App-based taxi services such as Ola, Uber, inDrive, and the government-supported YatriSathi ensure seamless connectivity from all major transport terminals to the IIEST, Shibpur campus.
The Department of Civil Engineering is located in the main building, second lobby, and the conference will be held in its Seminar Hall, which is well-marked upon entry.
