Admittance to sessions for students is via a pre-paid ticket available for $27 from your school. No charge for accompanying teachers who attend student sessions.
Due to the large number of sessions on offer at the HSC Study Day, there is only a half-hour lunch break. Food can be purchased from University food outlets located in the Plaza. Given the number of HSC students on campus
on the HSC Day, there will be a high demand on these facilities and some delays may occur. For convenience some students may wish to bring a packed lunch. Food or drink cannot be consumed in lecture theatres.
This program is correct as of May 5, 2015. While every effort will be made to adhere to the above program, events beyond the control of the organisers may result in a change to a presenter or the deletion of a subject. Enquiries
