The Location of Our Department


The following maps may be of help in locating our department. Our department is located at the corner of Green Street and Pickens Street in Columbia, South Carolina. The second through fourth of these maps were generated by MapQuest. The last map (the campus map) came from the USC directories and maps. The other maps and information there may be of interest. The building number for our department on the campus map is 60.



Some specific directions: Enter Columbia either (i) by I-26 (as you near the city, keep in one of the left two lanes) to I-126 (but follow the signs to Columbia rather than looking for an I-126 sign) to Elmwood Avenue to Bull Street (Elmwood ends there) and turn right on Bull Street or (ii) by I-77 to I-277 to Bull Street. Follow Bull Street to the campus. It will end at Pendleton. Turn left onto Pendleton. After one block, you will come to Pickens. You should be able to follow the maps. Like most (every ?) campus, it will not be terribly easy to park. There is a garage off Pickens (near the corner of Pendleton and Pickens) with visitor parking. There is also visitor parking on Green Street in front of Petigru (building number 61 on the campus map). Finally, you can try the various metered parking spots along the streets.
