The Old Adminstration Building of Nanyang University.
School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Building (SPMS)
CMDS 2026 will be held at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
The conference venue is the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Building (SPMS), Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. The talks will be in Lecture Theatre 1 (LT1), SPMS. The poster sessions, exhibitions, and lunch/dinner/break will be at the atrium in the SPMS building. (Note: There are several other LT1s in the NTU campus. Look specifically for SPMS-LT1)
From NEC, a short walk and a free campus shuttle bus ride will bring you to the conference venue. From Genting Hotel Jurong, daily bus transport will be provided for conference attendees between the Genting Hotel Jurong and SPMS, NTU (Both to and fro). You are welcome to take the bus even if you are not staying at Genting Hotel Jurong. More details on timing will be made shortly.
By Taxi: Quote this postal code (637371) to the taxi driver, and mention "School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Building (SPMS), Nanyang Technological University" if need be.
By Public transport: Take the subway system (MRT) from to "Pioneer" Station. Take Exit A from Pioneer Station, and you will arrive at a bus stop. Take bus 179. After 10 stops, alight at the "School of Communications & Information" stop. Follow signs to the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Building (SPMS), which is about 400 m walk away. (Apologies as the place near the bus stop may be a bit messy now, due to on-going construction).
Passport holders from most countries do not need a visa to enter Singapore for a short-term visit. Countries that need a visa can be found here. You may find information regarding the Entry Requirements (Eg. Visa applications) on the following Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) website here.
All visitors need to fill up the SG Arrival Card (SGAC). This applies even if you do not need a visa to travel into Singapore. It includes a health declaration and you can only fill it up less than 3 days before arriving in Singapore. Do not worry too much if you forgot to do it. You can still fill it up on-arrival in Singapore. It will just be a slight hassle and delay your immigration clearance by 10 minutes. Beware: You DO NOT need to pay any money for these submissions. Beware of on-line scam sites!
English is the official language in Singapore, and all signs and instructions are in English. It should therefore be rather straightforward to travel around.
The weather in Singapore is humid and hot (~28 to 32 deg. C), so don't overdress. Having said that, public transport and most indoor areas are air-conditioned and comfortable.
Public transport (Both public buses and subway system) can be paid for with your credit card.
Taxis are available relatively easily in most places. More convenient is to use the Ride Hailing app Grab (This is the Singapore equivalent of UBER)
More information on other travel matters will be made available soon. Stay tuned!
