Forecasts for the beginning of the second term regarding face-to-face teaching

Statement from the Management of Pompeu Fabra University - 10th of December 2020

10.12.2020

 

At the end of the teaching period of the first term, the UPF Management would like to thank once again the effort of adaptation of the whole community –teachers, students and administration and services staff–, which has made it possible to overcome the term positively despite the difficulties and tthe uncertainty we have lived with in recent months.

Looking ahead to the second term, which will begin on the 7th of January, the will is to recover hybrid teaching, as provided for in the contingency plan for the 2020-2021 academic year; that is, teaching with large groups virtualized, seminars and practical sessions in a face-to-face mode, and 40% occupancy of the spaces, combined with the online subjects that were already planned. However, the teaching modality is conditioned by the decisions adopted by the PROCICAT and, in particular, by the moment in which Catalonia will move to section 4 of the de-escalation plan, which is when the recovery of attendance at universities is foreseen.

If on the 7th of January 2021 Catalonia had not been able to move to section 4, the start of the second term would be made with face-to-face teaching limited to practical sessions that take place in technical spaces, laboratories and hospital area, as the it has been the case until the end of the first term.

We will communicate to the university community any news that occurs in the forecasts about the beginning of the term.
