Schedule

The week before the Ninth Symposium on Frequency Standards and Metrology we are presenting a summer school at the Gold Coast on Frequency Standards, Precision, and Quantum Measurements, for students, early career researchers, and those professionals who want to learn more on the subject. The school is limited to 50 participants, and there will be at least twelve tutorial-style lectures during the week, with a half hour for discussions after the tutorial.

The Summer School will be hosted at the Rydges hotel and is metres from the Airport terminal. The beach front is an easy stroll, just a 5-minute walk away. The Coolangatta. precinct is an easy 5 minutes’ drive. Relax by the 25m outdoor landscaped resort style swimming pool after working out in the fully equipped gym with cardio machines overlooking the airport runway.

The school will be hosted at the roof-top Kirra room and terrace, near the roof top bar and restaurant.
