except for designated areas determined based on a minimum distance of 20 metres from buildings.
This measure aims to create healthy living spaces under the “Smoke-Free Campus” initiative,
protect our staff and students from the harmful effects of tobacco products,
and support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Any individuals who violate this decision by using tobacco products in prohibited
areas will be subject to the necessary administrative procedures by the relevant unit heads in accordance with applicable legislation.
