Teaching in the academic year 2022–2023 will be arranged as contact teaching especially for students who have started in 2020 and thereafter. The aim of focussing on contact teaching and guidance is especially to support students to connect with their studies and create social networks.
Based on the results of the Student Union’s survey in January 2022, increased contact teaching has positive impacts for most students.

Pedagogical justifications and the achievement of learning outcomes are decisive in the selection of teaching modes. Teachers may, upon their consideration, arrange multimodal teaching if the learning outcomes and available facilities anable it. Teachers have the right to require attendance in teaching.

Teaching facilities and equipment have been developed to support different modes of teaching better than before. As for lecture teaching, the university recommends to make also lecture recordings that are available to students after the lectures.
