On-Campus Housing (Students Only)

As part of the conference, the organising committee is working with NTU’s Office of On Campus Housing to offer affordable accommodation options for student participants. Beyond cost savings, this also gives international attendees the opportunity to experience life on the NTU campus, staying in the same student halls as NTU’s own student community, within walking distance of the conference venue, dining options, and campus amenities.

A limited block of rooms has been made available by NTU on-campus housing for this purpose, for a fixed stay period of 4 nights: check-in 30 June 2026, check-out 4 July 2026. Participants who require accommodation outside these dates will need to make their own arrangements.

Indicative rates (per room, for the full 4-night stay):

  • Single AC room: USD 280 (4 nights)
  • Single Non-AC room: USD 220 (4 nights)

Please note: NTU on-campus student halls feature shared communal toilet and shower facilities on each floor (typical of university residence halls). Rooms are single-occupancy but bathrooms may not be en-suite. Other shared facilities may include pantries, lounges, and laundry rooms.

Status: The expression of interest exercise for student housing has concluded, and no further submissions are being accepted. Hall allocation results will be communicated in May 2026, after which successful registrants may proceed with payment via PaperCept for the allocated housing option.


Nanyang Executive Centre (on-campus accommodation)

The Nanyang Executive Centre (NEC) is NTU’s executive conference centre, offering on-campus accommodation within walking distance of the conference venue. Room options include the Deluxe Room, Executive Suite, and Panorama Suite, all inclusive of breakfast.

To book, please complete the NEC reservation form and enter booking code ICHMS26 under the booking code field. Payment is made directly to NEC via credit card upon check-in. For any enquiries, please contact NEC Reservations at [email protected].
