Given the evolution of the pandemic, UPF is extending the measures adopted at the beginning of this second term, in relation to teaching, throughout the month of February. That is, the classes that are usually held in conventional spaces will be held in virtual format; and only the practical classes that are carried out in technical spaces, in laboratories and in the hospital area will be done face-to-face. In these cases, with extreme vigilance and protection measures. Libraries will remain open as long as health conditions allow, with the opening hours, either in person or at a distance, specified on the website.

If, before the end of the term, the health and University authorities open the possibility of carrying out any face-to-face activity, the University will adopt it. In this case, students who continue to be affected by mobility restrictions will be guaranteed the distance learning provided for in the learning plan for the subjects of the second term.

We reiterate the call for individual and collective responsibility in this phase of the pandemic. University officials have taken all measures to make UPF campuses safe spaces; but these measures are of little use if each and every one of us does not always and everywhere maintain hygiene and distance measures and if we do not make proper use of the mask when we go to campus buildings to carry out some the permitted activities.
