Regarding COVID-19, please notice that:

 

  •         Since September 2020, UAM has been operating with face-to-face classes on Campus, despite a second wave of COVID-19 across Europe. Thanks to current protocols, UAM has been running smoothly, without outbreaks or contagions caused by the classes.

 

  •         Spain already has a vaccination plan against COVID-19 that is expected to start in January 2021. It is anticipated that by summer the entire population of Spain will be vaccinated, but by May a situation will have been reached that will allow the current restrictions to be relaxed.

 

Therefore, it is expected that the Summer Schools to be held in a similar way to previous years and with 100% face-to-face classes, but with a few precautions. The most significant difference for students is the expectation for the use of masks to remain mandatory. Please, check the webs for full details on COVID-19, which will be updated, as necessary.
