Visited this place for an event. Toilets need to be cleaner and there should be water fountains for free refilling of bottles. The TJ Danaraj Auditorium can get very cold but Centrepoint and other non enclosed venues can get pretty warm. Had to ask for the guest wifi but that worked fine.

Ali Bakir

Had a great experience at this faculty and its students. I was doing Master's of Community Oral Health at The Dentistry Faculty and was required 3 courses to be taken at the Faculty of Medicine with MPH program students. Had a great time with my colleagues. Picture included is from 2015.
