Information regarding the coronavirus for staff and students
Kristianstad University is monitoring the development of the coronavirus outbreak and Covid-19, and is following information from the Swedish Public Health Authority, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the government. The authorities' advice and recommendations are constantly updated online. Students and staff are therefore encouraged to stay informed through these websites and the information from the university.
Autumn semester 2021
Kristianstad university hopes to return to more campus activities during the autumn. However, the development is difficult to assess and the plan is therefore to start the autumn semester 2021 according to the hybrid model that is already in progress. This means that the campus-based teaching that can be replaced with digital alternatives, without significantly losing in quality, is given digitally. Elements that are not suitable to replace with digital alternatives are given on campus, for example practical elements and examinations. In these cases, precautions are taken to avoid risks.
Changes in the planning may take place on the basis of current recommendations from the authorities. If the pandemic situation improves in the autumn, adaptation for increased campus activities can take place gradually.
Spring semester 2021
In the spring semester of 2021 Kristianstad University continue with a combination of online teaching and teaching on campus, based on current guidelines and conditions. Changes can be made due to the authorities' recommendations.
