EB2 is Engineering Building II on NCSU's Centennial Campus. The East half of EB2 is the Department of Computer Science (the West half being Electrical and Computer Engineering). EB2 is a large building - about two blocks wide—so it is worth paying attention to where you are.

• Google map shows EB2 directly (it brings you to the breezeway), but you can't park in that area without a permit
• General directions to Centennial Campus
• Map of Centennial Campus
  • EB2 is in the middle toward the right of the map; it is labeled 782B
  • The loop above EB2 is Oval Drive: the main entrance is from Oval Drive via a large brick breezeway
  • The best bet for parking is in the Partners Way Parking Deck (labeled 713A in the map) (adjacent to the Red Hat Parking Deck), which lies to the North of the left corner of EB2; this parking deck consists two connected decks; the left two entrances are for the employees section; the right two for a paylot
    1. You can park in the employees section of the Partners Way Parking Deck (713A), but only if you obtain a visitors permit from the Information Booth (1702 Varsity Dr)
    2. You can park in the paylot section of the Partners Way Parking Deck (713A), but then you must pay separately there (the visitors permit doesn't work there)
    3. The university is extremely strict about parking
  • Professor Singh's research lab is close to the Southeast end of EB2, on the level above the main level
  • Classrooms 1229 and 1231 are close to the Southeast end of EB2, on the main level
• Getting in from Varsity Drive or Partners Way (from the West)
  • From the bus stop on Varsity Drive and Partners Way or from the parking deck on Partners Way, go up the curving brick stairs just outside the building
  • Walk around the building (this is the ECE part) till you come to the breezeway (a covered gap in the building)
  • You should see two symmetric glass structures enclosing fancy staircases: the one on the right (Southeast) is Computer Science
• Getting in from Oval Drive (from the North)
  • Right in front is a huge breezeway, kind of like a covered gap in the building
  • You should see two symmetric glass structures enclosing spiral staircases: the one on the left (East) is Computer Science
• Walking in (this is where the fun begins because the pointers are incomplete)
  • The classrooms are mostly on the main level on either side of the vinyl hall
  • For the service-oriented computing lab, use the spiral staircase to go up to the second floor; walk into the hall about two feet, turn right through a door (if this door is locked, you can call one of us), go about 20 feet, and turn left through another door (generally propped open) into a narrow carpeted hall
• Handicapped access
  • From the bus stop on Varsity Drive and Partners Way or to the parking deck on Partners Way, you can enter EB2 right from the point where Varsity Drive ends on Partners Way: this is one level below the main level
  • Go down an extremely long concrete-floored hall to the second elevator: classrooms are on the first floor; some faculty offices and labs (including the service-oriented computing lab) are on the second floor; others (including the departmental offices and mailroom) are on the third floor
  • When you get out of the elevator turn right; just before you get to the atrium is a door on the left (if this door is locked, you can call one of us), go about 20 feet, and turn left through another door (generally propped open) into a narrow carpeted hall
