LIUC is located close to the Italian lakes, within easy reach of Milan, Italy's business capital and the Malpensa International airport, Southern Europe's most important international hub.
You can reach us:
By plane
Milan Malpensa International Airport is 15 minutes drive from the University.
You can take a taxi (the taxi fare is around 40 Euro) or the Malpensa Express train.
Trains to Milan leave every half an hour and do not stop at Castellanza, but at two other stations nearby: Busto Arsizio (departure from MXP at 53 minutes past the hour) and Saronno (departure from MXP at 23 and 53 minutes past the hour).
Depending on the train you take, you have two options:
- stop at Busto Arsizio (first stop after Malpensa)
From here you take the regional train to Milano Cadorna (departure at 58 minutes past the hour) and get off at the first stop, Castellanza.
The journey will last 1 hour and cost you 3,45 Euro (2,50 Euro from Malpensa to Busto Arsizio and 0,95 from Busto Arsizio to Castellanza).
- stop at Saronno (second stop after Malpensa)
From Saronno you take the regional train to Novara (departure on the hour) and after two stops you are in Castellanza.
In this case your journey could last more than one hour and costs 5,00 Euro from Malpensa to Saronno and 1,50 Euro from Saronno to Castellanza, for a total cost of 6,50 Euro.
Arriving at Linate or Orio al Serio airport
By train
If you arrive at Milan Central station you need to transfer to the Cadorna station (Ferrovie Nord railway) by taxi or with the Metropolitan line. From here you take the Novara train to Castellanza. Trains leave every hour and the journey lasts 40 minutes.
By car
Castellanza has its own motorway exit on Motorway A8 Milano-Laghi. Follow the signs for Castellanza. Coming from Milan there are two roundabouts and three sets of traffic lights before coming to a supermarket called Esselunga on your right. After the supermarket turn sharp right and go straight on until you come to a junction. Turn right again and you will see the University car park on the left. | Castellanza, between Milan and Malpensa Airport
