Location
OST – Ostschweizer Fachhochschule, Campus Rapperswil : A modern and innovative education institution ideally situated between Rapperswil train station and Lake Zurich with a unique machine park on the Eichwies industrial estate. OST’s The Simulation Conference will be held in the Obersee Campus.
Oberseestrasse 10, Postfach 1475, 8640 Rapperswil-Jona
OST is right next to the Rapperswil train station. We recommend using public transport. Train station is Rapperswil SG. From the train station you can easily access to the OST Rapperswil.
The nearest public car park is around ten minutes’ walk away (see also local parking guidance system). There are only a few paid parking spaces available close to the university (maximum parking duration: 2 hours). The parking garage is reserved for OST members, from Monday to Friday, 6:00 to 17:00.
At Eichwies technology park the parking is located in front of Building 20 and on the south side of Building 18 by the train tracks.
Agenda
The Simulation Conference is basically divided in three parts.
It starts with the plenary session in the morning, followed by specific topic sessions, and ends with the plenary session of the afternoon. So please pick the topics that fit you best in the relevant room.
All through the day take advantage of breaks, lunchtime and "apéro" to meet our guests, visit our partners at their booths and talk with CADFEM's engineers.
Enjoy your day!
