COVID-19

Teaching arrangements and other information for COVID-19.

In-person teaching is an essential part of high-quality education. But given the increasing number of COVID-19 cases and following the instructions from the University, we will make the following teaching adjustments.


First three weeks (8/25–9/17): Online teaching + outdoor in-person office hours


  1. Online synchronous teaching: We will meet during our regular course time on Zoom for the first three weeks.
  2. Outdoor in-person office hours: We also make weekly in-person experience accessible to everyone in the form of outdoor office hours. This session is from 3pm to 5pm on Friday afternoons and is optional. Wearing a mask is still strongly recommended and appointment is required (office hour sheet). We will be meeting in the lobby at the front of SRH3.318.
  3. We will record the online session for the first three weeks.

After the first three weeks (9/18–)


We aim to switch to regular in-person teaching, but will follow the University’s policy.

For protecting our community, we strongly recommend everyone who are eligible to wear a mask, get tested, and get vaccinated.
