UU is meeting the request of the government to provide an institution-specific interpretation of the national sector plan Higher Education.

All corona measures will expire as of 23 March, advice to work from home abandoned, self-test only in case of complaints.

Relaxations: maximum of 75 people for lectures dropped, more on-site meetings for students and employees.

Face mask in UU buildings essential to keep education open; wider opening hours, small-scale meetings and activities at start of Block 3.

Information about education in block 3, (lab) research on location, the use of face masks, working from home and small-scale activities on location.

At the moment we are in the final phase of education block 2 (until 7 February). Practicals and tests are on location. Lectures and tutorials are online, unless a programme decides otherwise.

Yesterday, the demissionary Cabinet announced (in Dutch) that primary and secondary schools will again be able to provide education on location as of 10 January. Unfortunately, this does not yet apply to higher education. For the time being, only practical education and tests can be held on location. Lectures and tutorials will remain online.

A lockdown was announced for the whole of the Netherlands on December 18. During the current block 2 (until 7 February) only practical education and tests will take place on location. Lectures and workgroups will remain online.

A lockdown has been announced for all of the Netherlands on 18 December. This means that education on location will not take place the coming week.

Lecturers have a crucial profession. They can make use of care facilities at primary schools and nurseries. They can also be tested with priority at the GGD.

Lectures proceed on location without 1.5 metres distance and a maximum group size of 75 people, working from home remains the norm and current state of affairs until at least 18 December.

Information on the consequences of the stricter corona measures for events and meetings.

No lectures on location on Monday and Tuesday, work and study at home as much as possible and keep 1.5 metre distance.

Face masks when moving around in buildings and test yourself twice a week.

The 1.5 metre distancing measure was already announced to disappear as of 25 September, as well as that it will no longer be compulsory to wear a face mask or follow walking routes in university buildings.

In this update, we list the measures for starting the new academic year safely and responsibly.
