How to reach Dept. of Physics (preconference venue)
Department of Physics is in the main campus of the Cochin University of Science and Technology, located 2 km east of South Kalamassery which is well connected by air, rail, road and sea. South Kalamassery is in NH 47 between Ernakulam and Aluva (Alwaye).
By Air
The Cochin International Airport located at Nedumbassery is about 20 km and a mere 20 minutes drive from the Main Campus of CUSAT. Low floor AC buses are available to reach South Kalamassery. Auto-rickshaws are available at the South Kalamassery bus stop for transport to the Main Campus, 1 km away.
By Rail
The Railway Station at Alwaye (Aluva) is 10 kms north of the Main Campus and has the convenience of an adjacent Bus Station, from where very frequent bus services bound for Ernakulam and beyond will take you in 15 minutes to South Kalamassery. Auto-rickshaws are available at the South Kalamassery bus stop for transport to the Main Campus, 1 km away.
Alternatively, one may alight at Ernakulam Town (North) or Ernakulam Junction (South) Railway Stations, both of which are on the southern side of the Main Campus. However, note that all trains will not stop at both the stations. Buses bound for Alwaye are available from nearby bus stops for travel to South Kalamassery (13 kms).
By Road
All long distance KSRTC and inter-state buses flying along National Highway 47 have a ‘Request Bus Stop’ at Cochin University Junction. If travelling by City Buses, the Bus stop nearest to the Main Campus is South Kalamassery. If travelling from the south, you may alight at Pallimukku Bus Stop and then take a City Bus to South Kalamassery.
By Sea
The Cochin Port is situated on Willingdon Island, which faces the City (Lakeside) Campus and is just across the adjoining back waters. Buses bound for Alwaye are available from nearby bus stops for travel to South Kalamassery (13 kms).
