Medical School Room Layout

The Medical School layout can seem quite daunting to anybody who is unfamiliar with it. You can find a plan of the Medical School by clicking here.

In general, rooms are numbered according to location - first letter states the position, second letter states which floor, i.e. CFxx would be central, first floor; EGxx would be east wing, ground; WXxx would be west extension (the next number denotes which floor).

Meeting Rooms

Mentoring

The role of a Mentor is an important one; guiding and supporting a less experienced colleague in the achievement of their career ambitions, skill acquisition or on-going development is rewarding. A video on "What is Mentoring" can be found here. POD are keen to provide opportunities for staff to realise their professional and personal ambitions through the informal but no less important intervention of Mentoring. If you are interested in becoming a Mentor or feel you would benefit from having a Mentor, visit the POD intranet pages for further information and advice.
