Most of the staff at the three faculties housed at Mater Dei Hospital, namely the Faculty of Medicine & Surgery, the Faculty of Dental Surgery, and the Faculty of Health Sciences, have been relocated to the Msida Campus over the weekend.
In the latest email update sent to the UM community, Rector Prof. Alfred J. Vella thanked the Estates, Facilities and Capital Development Directorate for their sterling work.
He also said the Emergency Situation Team is still holding regular meetings to determine the steps and measures that need to be taken in a timely manner, and praised academics who have risen to the challenge of switching to online teaching.
“Serving our students and society at this difficult moment makes us more relevant than ever”, he said.
