UA Engineering Safe Reopening Plan
The UA College of Engineering is committed to delivering a high-quality education, advancing life-changing research and development, and creating a vibrant campus experience -- as safely as possible.
The college’s Safe Reopening Plan (pdf) includes detailed information on all aspects of reentry related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Among topics covered are the following:
- Flexible course offerings -- in-person, online and hybrid
- Measures for optimal student engagement
- Safety protocols in and out of the classroom and in labs and buildings
- Procedures for testing, tracing and treating
- Guidelines for remote advising and working at home
The plan builds on recommendations put forth by the University of Arizona Campus Reentry Plan Working Group.
