Click for a map of the surrounds of Clayton campus of Monash University, where the courses will be held. The taxi fare from the airport, if paying by credit card, can exceed $80. A cheaper option, suitable for interstate visitors and for all visitors for the return trip to the airport is the Dandenong Airport Bus.
Lectures and computing lab sessions will be held in the Menzies Building (Building 11 on this detailed campus map).
Courses held at CoPS are intensive -- there is so much material to fit in ! Typical daily schedules start with an 8.45am lecture, followed by a computer lab session and another lecture before breaking for lunch at 12.30pm. More lectures and labs run from 1.30 to 7.00pm. Usually the day is followed by a 7.00pm group dinner on the campus, supplied by CoPS. The schedule suits most foreign and out-of-state course participants, but may tire those who plan to travel daily from far-off homes or hotels. They should consider staying closer to Monash. Also, there is little time during the courses for visitors to sample the delights of the Melbourne area -- we suggest you arrive a few days early [or stay on after] to discover these.
Course participants from outside Australia may require an Australian visa. We can assist with a formal letter of invitation. Apply as early as possible for a visa, as it may take some time to process.
Course participants may visit the University Sports Union for the duration of the courses. They will be able to use a range of facilities, including swimming, tennis, squash and aerobics. Participants will need to pay the usual fees for the use of these facilities.
