Teaching at the University of Oulu has no corona restrictions. The studies are organized as contact teaching, distance learning, multimodal teaching and hybrid teaching. The decision on the teaching method is made by the teacher in charge of the course, who also informs the students about it. Students can also study on campuses independently.
