There is a wealth of study space available to students in the MD program, to accommodate the full range of study practices, whatever the subject, group size, or hours!
St. George Campus
Medical Student Lounge
The Ruth Kurdyak Medical Alumni Student Lounge is located in the C. David Naylor Student Commons area, Room 2171B. This lounge is exclusively for medical students, and provides a great space for students to relax, eat, play pool, and socialize with peers. There is also a ‘looking glass’ that corresponds to the ‘looking glass’ located at MAM, enabling private student meetings to be video-conferenced between campuses.
Undergraduate Medical Student Study Space
Students on the St. George campus benefit from the Undergraduate Medical Student Study Space located at 263 McCaul Street, which opened in 2012 based directly on student feedback. This space, which is available 24/7 exclusively for medical student and PA student use, is equipped with a mixture of study carrels, open seating, small-group study rooms, and clinical skills rooms for physical examination practice, as well as a small lunch room. Wireless access is available throughout the space, and there are a number of laptops provided for students who do not bring their own. The Study Space is secure and accessible by key fob. Located on the fifth floor of 263 McCaul Street, the space is easily accessed by walking across the street from the MSB (side adjacent to Terrence Donnelly Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research), and through the Health Sciences Building (155 College St.), via the second-floor walkway.
MedIT
Through an agreement with MedIT, the computer lab 3172 is available for after-hours and weekend use by medical students (except when previously reserved for other activities). Students from various programs are also welcome to use the computers in the DC foyer 24/7, and may also use the computer labs when not booked for classes or meetings.
