To bring awareness among the students of various programmes in IMU, the Intravarsity Club recruits two Envoys Committees from each programme to take lead in events organised by the Club. The Envoys Committee will organise events based on their respective programmes, with the primary aim of uniting all programmes at IMU. In this context, the “1st Make Your Medication” Workshop 2016 was organised by the Envoys Committee of the Intravarsity Club on behalf of the pharmacy programme, spearheaded by Foong Keng Wah and Yeoh Tze Wei with the guidance of Dr Nagashekhara Molugulu and their team on 18 November 2016. Held at IMU’s Pharmaceutics lab, the workshop was organised with the intention of giving IMU students experience in the pharmacy profession.
