Subject: NOTICE for FEI TUKE staff and students for start of the academic year 2021/22

With the upcoming beginning of the academic year, the Rector's Order PR / TUKE / 11/21 on measures related to the beginning of the academic year 2021/22 was issued.

One of the duties of Students and employees is to get acquainted with COVID AUTOMAT, which monitors the development of the pandemic.

The "OTP" (Vaccinated / Tested by Slovak PCR test not older than 72 hours / After COVID disease) regime was defined for the teaching in the TUKE premises (point IV.3 of the cited Rector's Order).

Teaching at the FEI will take place as follows:

• Lectures - online form
  
• Exercises - present form Attendance at the exercises will be declared by proving the fact of "OTP" (Vaccinated / Tested by Slovak PCR test not older than 72 hours / After COVID disease) using the QR code of the electronic application Green Pass, or another equivalent application and method accepted in accordance with the valid Covid Automat.

The "OTP" regime is also valid for all employes (based on point VI.1 of the cited Rector's Order ). At the beginning of the Winter Semester of academic year 2021/22 (20.09.2021), we also expect employees to monitor the "OTP" regime.

In case of changes in COVID AUTOMAT and transition to another phase, the teaching schedule will be operatively adjusted.

Let me address you at the end of the summer semester with an idea that is currently bothering the whole society and higher education.

This topic is the pandemic, which has also significantly marked higher education. Unlike lower levels of education, it has caused a complete transition to the online sphere.

Despite the enormous efforts of teachers, the quality of teaching suffers, as it is not possible to replace the student's personal contact with the teacher and the faculty.

In order to maintain the quality of education, our effort is to return students to classrooms and laboratories. We see the way to this in the vaccination of students and teachers.Our goal is to help with this by organizing a campaign and finding ways to make it easier for students to access the vaccine, including with the active participation and help of TUKE.

I believe that this letter will be perceived as an effort so that we can meet students at the university premises in September, and so that students can return to the Student Homes and complete university education with all the student activities and student life.

Our faculty plans to open the winter semester of the academic year 2021/2022 in the form of full-time teaching, therefore we expect vaccination with both doses to be completed by September 10, 2021.

An alternative solution will be to pass the testing before the beginning of the semester and, depending on the current state of the pandemic, also during the semester.

We believe that this challenge will be accepted by students and our educators in order to protect against infection of large numbers of our students. I wish you a nice summer, good health and well-being.
