Maps
This map (Wikimapia.org) should provide you with a decent orientation- the box within a box is the EIT lab (it should be in the center of the photo). If coming from off-campus, you can park in the lot just north of the EIT box.
For using website-based directions to campus,try 621 BARTHOLOMEW RD, PISCATAWAY, NJ 08854. Some of the street maps (and most satallite/aerial images) are out of date, so print out the Rutgers-produced map here: [WWW] http://maps.rutgers.edu/pdf/busch.pdf (the EIT is located in map grid G4).

By foot
These directions are for when you are on Busch Campus.
From the Busch Student Center
Leave via the back entrance and walk towards the nearest part of the parking lot (lot 59). Parallel to the right (north) side of the parking lot is the Civil Engineering Labratory; walk parallel to this building until the the parking lot ends. The Civil Engineering Labratory will be on your right and the CAIT building will be to your left: walk between the two buildings and you will see a statue of "the thinker" in the middle of a court yard. Stay to the left (south) of the statue and ascend the first ramp on your left. Once you enter the building, the EIT Lab is room D-110 immediately to your left.
(Notes: since the construction of the CAIT building, the sidewalk to the EIT lab does not quite meet the edge of the parking lot--walk on the dirt path. Also, on some maps the Civil Engineering Labratory is labeled Civil Engineering Annex, but on the building it says, Civil Engineering Labratory)
From the Hill Center bus stop, walk up the Hill Center steps, across the court yard and under the walkway. The Engineering building is on the right and you will need to walk a bit to get the main entrance. Once inside, go right then make the first left. Walk down the hallway (passed the DSV lab) and you will be forced to make a left (passing the ECS machine room). Go through the double doors and make a right. Go through another set of doors then make a left. The EIT lab is at the end of the hall.
