Learning and teaching - the rear view mirror and the road ahead

This charming regional campus within easy access of Melbourne will welcome you to what will no doubt be a social and scholarly meeting of the AuPS, with all sessions and functions within walking distance of all local accommodation options as well as this delightful regional campus.

The welcome reception on the Sunday night features Prof. Lynch's plenary lecture, followed by drinks and food. There is a student social on Monday night, with the annual conference dinner on the Tuesday night at the spectacular Pier restaurant on Corio Bay with views of the historic campus and the surrounding seaside.

Registration includes the welcome reception, catered morning and afternoon breaks, all lunches, tea & coffee throughout the day, and of course the conference dinner.

Travel and accommodation information is already available for you to plan your attendance at this stand-alone AuPS meeting that should not be missed.

If you are not yet a member of our Society and would like to present your research, then you can register as a non-member and have a member sponsor your abstract. It will be to your financial advantage to join the society first. Consult the information on the Society’s membership pages.
