COURSE VENUE
The hotels in Lausanne provide a free public transportation card (bus, metro) to all their guests upon arrival. Lausanne has an excellent public transportation system, which makes it very easy to come to the EPFL.
The courses will be held at the School of Engineering (Exact location will be indicated soon: see EPFL Plan) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, (EPFL), Switzerland. Classroom numbers will be indicated at the information desk before the course start.
