Campus information

The 50,000 square feet Johor Bahru campus hosts the medical degree programme and other related healthcare programmes, allowing the university to leverage on its links with nearby public hospitals thus giving its students critical exposure and experience.

Among its many laboratories are the Multi-Disciplinary Lab 1, used mainly for Biochemistry, Microbiology and Pharmacology subjects, the Multi-Disciplinary Lab 2 which is used during both, Anatomy and Pathology sessions, and the Multi-Disciplinary Lab 3 normally used for Physiology and other Pre-Clinical demonstrations.
