Given the global outbreak of coronavirus, we as an educational institution, have been in high alert to ensure the operational readiness of the university. Several students and staff members have been enquiring how the university will respond to the present situation.
As you have probably heard already, Estonian Government has decided to close all educational institutions including our university starting from Monday, 16^th March 2020. The emergency situation is in effect through May 3, unless the government should decide otherwise. Please note, that does not mean it is a holiday but temporarily changed study and work patterns.
What does this mean for you?
- Head of Curriculums will check their groups curriculums and evaluate a possibility to arrange a distant learning opportunity for their students in the coming weeks (they will check if there is a Moodle course already available, can we use e-learning materials, additional homework, video recordings etc)
- There are definitely subjects, where arranging a distant learning seems impossible. But let’s be creative and smart as cancellation of lectures brings serious problems later. At the moment we are not planning to extend the length of the semester.
- Your first point of contact is International Office. Except, please contact your Head of Curriculum if you have any questions concerning your study.
- There are no organised visits to companies or other information visits allowed during this period.
- We are reviewing the events planned at the university daily.
- Please fill out a travel request form http://bit.do/travel-request-form if you would like to leave Estonia and it is still allowed by Government.
- Study Department phones will be transferred to mobiles.
- The university building will remain closed till 3 May.
- The student hotel will not be taking in any new guests during this time.
We are hoping the current situation will be resolved quickly. Until then, let’s collaborate and show that as a digital country we can successfully overcome the obstacles before us.
