IFIC is located in the Paterna branch of the Burjassot-Paterna Campus, one of the three campuses of the University of Valencia. It is served by line 4 of Valencia's tram, integrated into the metro system. Here is an IFIC-site Google map of the site with relevant tram stops indicated in purple and red. The first one, called Vicent Andres Estelles, serves the Facultad de Fisica at the Burjasot Campus. The next tram stop, called TVV, indicated in red, serves the Paterna campus (indicated in green) where the main IFIC administration offices, experimental Halls, computing center and the Worksop site are located.
