31 January - 3 February
2023 Australasian Computer Science Week

INVITATION TO ATTEND

We invite you to join us for the 2023 Australasian Computer Science Week (ASCW).

Monash University, Caulfield Campus, Melbourne, 31 January – 3 February 2023

ACSW is the premier event for Computer Science researchers across Australasia, organised under the governing auspices of Computing Research and Education (CORE) Association of Australasia.

2023 will be the first opportunity for our communities to come together in the one location since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. As such the conference is planned to be a physical event, and we encourage authors to travel to Melbourne to deliver their talk, and network with delegates in-person.

Given this is the first physical ACSW since 2020, we are excited to be working with a particular focus on maximising the opportunity for networking and discussion amongst attendees.

More information regarding invited speakers and programmed events will be released via the website as planning proceeds. We encourage you to check the website regularly for updates.

Registrations are now open: https://acsw.core.edu.au/home/2023-registration

Early registration closes 13 January.

We look forward to seeing you in Melbourne.

Chair, 2023 ACSW
