Good places for study in the campus

Ever wonder where to go when you have no class but have to stay in the campus?
Ever wonder where to go to prepare for your quiz, midterm and final exams?

    • There are 55 tutorial rooms in total. What you need to do is finding one without class and tap your matric card on the lock to enter the room. However, you may have to leave when there are classes.
    • You can also sit outside tutorial rooms, but there won't be air-con in the outside areas.
    • There is a cafe at the bottom level of the hive, selling pastas, sandwiches, cold beverage etc.
