University of Oulu prepares to organize autumn studies on campuses – Summer studies remotely
With this decision on autumn studies, the University of Oulu wants to support the well-being of students and teachers. The university wants to give the opportunity especially for first- and second-year students to study and meet each other on campuses.
However, the development of the corona epidemic is constantly monitored and for autumn studies, there are also preparations for distance education in all studies. In particular, if a course would be inconvenient to re-plan in changing circumstances, it is worthwhile to organize it primarily remotely. Online, blended and hybrid modes of teaching can be used in situations where it is pedagogically meaningful.
The situation is re-evaluated constantly on the basis of the recommendations and orders given by the Regional State Administrative Agency AVI.
