The Henry Sy Sr. Hall, is an educational building under construction in the University of Santo Tomas campus in Manila, Philippines. It will house the Sts. Cosmas and Damian Simulation and Research Center of the UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery.
History[edit]
In January 2020, the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery began its sesquicentennial celebration with the reveal of the building. It was initially named after the patron saints of the college Saints Cosmas and Damian.[1]
In October 2022, at the end of the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery's 150th anniversary celebration, the building project was relaunched as the Henry Sy Sr. Hall.[2] It was named after the founder of SM Supermalls, as requested by his daughter Teresita Sy-Coson, whose foundation donated ₱300 million to the UST Research and Endowment Foundation.[3][4]
Facilities[edit]
The hall will house an audiology laboratory that will be named after Dr. William F. Austin, founder of the United States-based company Starkey Hearing Technologies. The Starkey Foundation donated $200,000 for the naming rights of the laboratory.
