Karelia campuses will be opened in August 2021

We will open the campuses of Karelia in August 2021 and return to in person instruc­tion as widely as possible.

We will ensure regular in person instruc­tion to all groups and students. We will in partic­u­lar stress contact lessons for students begin­ning their studies this coming autumn and those who began their studies during the pandemic. We will support students nearing their grad­u­a­tion with special arrange­ments if restric­tions have impeded the normal comple­tion of their studies.

We have prepared for a return to normal regard­ing inter­na­tional student exchanges and expect inter­na­tional degree students to come to Joensuu in the begin­ning of the autumn semester.

The devel­op­ment of the coro­n­avirus situ­a­tion is moni­tored at Karelia UAS on a daily basis. The manage­ment meets for a situ­a­tion analy­sis regu­larly and is prepared to take neces­sary action in order to ensure the safety of UAS activ­i­ties in all circum­stances. The safety instruc­tions are updated when­ever necessary.
