However, all students are encouraged to participate in the evaluation

AIR Topic Briefing

AIR Topic Briefing by Prof Mala Maung will be postponed until further notice. I'm not very sure about this but I was told that dental students are involved too! (FYI, we actually had gone through half of the briefing previously during orientation week. However, we didn't manage the finish the session because the Pharmacy students need to use our place for their lectures).
