On-campus parking is available. The Beacons Lot is the closest parking lots to my office. However, it takes only 5 to 10 minutes from any parking lots to my office. Parking fee is $6.

By public transportation:
If you come to the campus using public transportation, take the MBTA Red Line subway to the JFK/UMASS station. There is a free shuttle service between the subway station and the campus. It takes only a couple of minutes from the subway station to the campus. Shuttle buses run every 5 to 10 minutes. See this site for more details on the subway map. For the schedule and routes of the capmus shuttle service, see this page.

When you arrive at the campus, visit the 3rd floor of the Science Center building. Prof. Suzuki's office is Room 168 on the 3rd floor of the Science Center building. Here is a floor map of the Science Center's 3rd floor.
