Getting Here
Both campuses are served by PMV routes running along the main roads into Waigani and Boroko. Taxis and ride-hailing drivers know both sites by name.
Visitors driving in should carry photo identification for the security post at the gate. Visitor parking is available near the main administration buildings; parking outside marked bays is not permitted.
If you are visiting a specific School or office, contact them beforehand — they can meet you at the gate and point you to the right building.
