Travel and Hotels

Transportation

Detroit Airport (DTW) is around a half-hour drive from Ann Arbor. To get from the airport to Ann Arbor, most people use Uber/Lyft. There are also taxis and a bus service to downtown Ann Arbor (a short walk to campus) if your flight times line up with the bus schedule.

The organizers have limited funds available to support the travel of primarily junior participants. Please let us know if your participation would require support to cover the cost of travel.

Accommodations

All speakers will have their local accommodations covered from Thursday, October 23 through Sunday, October 26. A hotel block for speakers is reserved at The Vanguard Ann Arbor, a short walk away from the conference location. MCAIM Program Manager Megan Connolly (mmconnol@umich.edu) will communicate with speakers about hotel reservations.

For other participants, an extensive list of area hotels can be found here: https://www.annarbor.org/places-to-stay/.

Parking

Should you wish to park close to campus, your best bet is the public lot at 650 S Forest Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48104, which is a few blocks away from the conference location. The rate is $1.50/hr.
