Regarding the developing epidemiological situation connected with COVID-19 infections (pneumonia caused by the new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus), I order cancelling departures on business trips abroad for our employees, doctoral students and students, as well the arrivals of visitors from abroad at our University, including doctoral students and students, in each case when cancelling the arrival or visit does not result in financial consequences or other serious negative effects, key for continuing cooperation with the given institution.
In other cases, the decision regarding such departures and arrivals is made by Deans’ authorities. Complex cases should be consulted with Rectors’ authorities. In case of personal travel of employees, doctoral students and students of Lodz University of Technology, the recommendations of the Chief Sanitary Inspector, the World Health Organization, or the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control should be followed.
The announcement shall remain in force until further notice.
Rector of Lodz University of Technology
