Link to Google Maps for navigation. Note that Google Maps Street View is available throughout Poznań (and Poland), and you can use it for better orientation.
All the rooms used by PLM2016 will offer desktop computers, projectors, and audio equipment.
Internet access
The Collegium Novum building, as well as other AMU buildings in the centre, offer WiFi Internet access using the eduRoam scheme. If your home institution is a member of the system, you will be able to log on to the wireless network using your home login. For those of our guests who cannot take advantage of that approach, we will offer a dedicated PLM WiFi network.
Outside of AMU buildings, the centre of Poznań is covered by a free municipal network, wireless.poznan.pl. While limited in speed and requiring a log-on every hour, it is usable for emergency access.
The entire urban area has LTE mobile internet access. Note that roaming charges will apply; check these with your home operator.
