The ICTC is located within the Academic Services Building which also house the Library and the Educational Technology Centre. By 2010, with the completion of the new Academic Services Building, the space currently occupied by ICTC will be converted to Library space.

The Swanky New CIBFM Building (or affectionately named the YELLOW building by UBDians)

This building is one of the latest new buildings of UBD. By August 2009, it will be the new home for the newly established Institute for Leadership, Innovation and Advancement and other offices of UBD. UBD will be occupying a major part of the ground floor and the whole of second floor. The other areas will be occupied by an external body, Centre for Islamic Banking and Finance (CIBFM). A first for the university in terms of space sharing with an external body. The building is located on the right just as you go into the UBD main entrance before the first roundabout. It has its back to the main road and its front faces the Chancellor Hall.

Where we nurture our greens...

The nursery is located in a small corner just next to the university's sports complex and the main storage building. The area is naturally shady due to the presence of big tress and this helps protect the young plants. Since the university have a separate landscaping contract for maintenance of its grounds, the nursery supplies plants mainly for indoor areas and as added decor for UBD functions. The university directly employ 4 staff to maintain the nursery and all the indoor plants within campus.


WARNING: Lots of green pictures ahead...










A wild visitor to the University!




Can you see it?

The Chancellor Hall



The Chancellor Hall is located just next to the Administration Building. The main feature is a big hall of capacity approx. 3000 people. The hall is a new addition to the campus and was completed sometime in 2003. It is used to host the university's special events such as the convocation, conferences, seminars, forums... the list goes on.. but is also open for rental to the public.

I was informed that everyone from the supplier's company will be working extra hours in the next few days installing and fixing the furniture. Very efficient!
