At the School of Advanced Social Studies we are regularly following the development of the coronavirus situation. All pedagogic, research and professional activities will continue to operate fully, as well as travels to and from abroad. We will also continue to cooperate with our partners as usual. We recommend all our students and colleagues abroad to continue with their planned activities.
The exception are activities which cannot be implemented due to the limitations imposed by partner institutions (e.g. closure of the university, postponing the semester, limiting visits, etc.). If the partner institutions impose such actions due to the coronavirus, that can be understood as force majeure and we can still claim the costs incurred with the majority of co-financers.
We are regularly following the development of the disease and we will follow the guidelines and instructions of state institutions. The university leadership also met today with scope to prepare potential measures, if needed.
So far, we advise all students and staff to:
- act preventively (employing the same actions as to prevent the spread of the seasonal flu, especially be mindful of the regular and thorough hand washing, hygienic coughing and distance);
- read and follow the guidelines of the World Health Organisation;
- follow official information about the disease’s development and preventive measures;
- also follow guidelines and instructions of local authorities and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Additionally, we ask all students and staff, who notice symptoms of weaker health (cough, fever) to stay at home until they regain their health.
Simultaneously, we guarantee that we respect personal views and we are bound to honor potential stricter personal measures taken by individuals (taking annual leave or using past overtime, work from home where and when possible, wearing personal protective gear and similar).
If in doubt, students and employees can send their questions to [email protected].
Foreign students and staff coming to Slovenia for an Erasmus+ mobiliy can still contact the Erasmus+ coordinator Mrs Jasmina Jakomin by phone 00386 5 907 34 59 or e-mail [email protected].
