Compliance with safety guidelines more important — The number of participants in public events limited
The university facilities do not need to be completely closed for now. The situation will be monitored daily and possible further actions will be considered in cooperation with the regional authorities.
Distance learning and remote working will continue until 31 May 2021, in accordance with the decision previously taken by the COVID-19 coordination group of the university. Teaching is provided on campus only if it cannot be arranged remotely.
Until further notice, public events and general meetings can be held at the university premises with a maximum of 10 people attending. Such events include, for example, public defences of a doctoral thesis. It is important to follow safety instructions even in this case.
Compliance with safety and hygiene guidelines is now extremely important. So far, the guidance has been commendably followed, which has allowed the situation to remain well under control in our university community.
