Greeting from the dean
We’ve got off to a good start after the holidays, although unfortunately with a number of employees who have to work from home, but luckily you will be returning this week. COVID-19 is clearly still here, and we have to be ready to live with it for some time to come. This places demands on the individual and on us as a community, and we must all ensure that we maintain the good habits we’ve become used to.
Dear colleagues,
We’ve got off to a good start after the holidays, although unfortunately with a number of employees who again have to work from home, but luckily you will be returning this week. COVID-19 is clearly still here, and we have to be ready to live with it for some time to come. This places demands on the individual and on us as a community, and we must all ensure that we maintain the good habits we’ve become used to. With this in mind, I'm sure that we can make our life at work go smoothly.
The programme for the commencement of studies has now been launched, and fortunately we’ve been able to welcome students physically at all our locations, although naturally with safeguards and precautions for both students and teaching staff to reduce the risk of spread of infection. I’m pleased to see the hustle and bustle return to the university again.
I’d like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of you for your hard work in navigating this difficult time and in reorganising and adapting teaching so that we can again get off to a good start.
Furthermore, I'm pleased to tell you that it looks as if I’ll be able to make my tour of the faculty's departments and locations around the country. The coronavirus situation still restricts our possibilities to meet physically, but I'm looking forward to visiting you.
No matter where you are in Denmark, I’d like to remind you that you should continue following the authorities' guidelines, so that together we can keep the infection rate in check. There are guidelines on the AU corona website on how to handle COVID-19 symptoms and infection.
Yours sincerely,
Eskild Holm Nielsen
Dean, Tech
