COVID-19 update for the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä research community
Dear research community,
²ÊÃñ±¦µä announced moving classes to remote modalities and considering working remotely, where possible, in response to the international COVID-19 outbreak. The health of ²ÊÃñ±¦µä’s students, faculty and staff are our main concern and we remain committed to the research and creative work mission.
Research continues
- Work that requires university labs or facilities will continue as usual. Researchers (faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students, post docs and other researchers) can continue to use university research laboratories.
- Work that can be completed remotely should be conducted remotely.
Campus remains open
- Our goal is to reduce the risk to students, faculty and staff by minimizing exposure through social distancing and remote work.
- With the ongoing concern for the spread of the disease, researchers should anticipate the possibility of interruptions to normal activities and develop plans for the different scenarios to ensure the continuity of research.
