Providing Free Drinking Water

Located on the South and North Campuses, these hygienic fountains provide clean and potable water. The fountains are strategically located to ensure easy access to water for campus residents.

Particularly on the South Campus, fountains are located in heavily used areas such as the Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences, Albert Long Hall and the Student Activities Building. Fountains are also located in indoor areas such as the Abdullah Kuran Library and New Hall. Some of the fountains are equipped with special drains designed to provide water for cats and dogs living on campus.
