Information from the dean

Dear members of the FIN,

On behalf of the faculty management, I wish you a happy and healthy new year!

Unfortunately, we still have to deal with the effects of the Corona pandemic and as you could see from the Rector's email of January 08, 2021, our university will remain at level 4 of the stage plan until the end of January 2021. (After that, a new decision will be made and action will be taken according to the situation.) For us as a faculty, this means that, in order to avoid contacts, all teaching rooms such as seminar rooms, laboratories and also learning areas on the floor corridors will remain closed to all students and staff.

Building 29 also remains closed to the public and is only accessible to FIN employees by key or transponder. Students will still not have access to the building, even via chip (if access is required, please make personal contact with the student/staff in question).

Due to the closure of building 29 to the public, delivery services/parcel delivery companies and the like are still asked to either contact the respective orderers or to drop off deliveries at the OVGU post office. Appropriate arrangements have been made with the post office. This announcement is also visible via a notice on the outside doors.

Dear members of the FIN, we all hope that these strict measures will now lead to success and thus the COVID-19 incidence numbers can be significantly reduced. Thank you for your understanding and support!!!

There will be arrangements with the university management about the further procedure at the end of January 2021 and we will inform you then.

Until then, on behalf of the entire faculty management, I wish you to stay healthy!

Best regards
Prof. Dr. Hans-Knud Arndt
Dean of the Faculty of Computer Science
