The safety and well-being of SMU students, faculty and staff is the University’s top priority. Since 27 January 2020, the University has put in place a set of precautionary measures to safeguard our community against the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). We will continue to monitor the situation, take guidance from official advisories released by the authorities, and adjust our measures accordingly.
This microsite serves as a one-stop location where the SMU Community and beyond will be able to obtain key updates and important information on COVID-19
While we cannot be complacent, we must remain calm and confident. Let us work together, support each other, stay vigilant and do our best to protect the SMU Community.
