Due to the division of the semester into three parts, classes will be conducted in blocks of 3 lesson hours each (3x 45 minutes) so that it is possible to do 15 hours in 5 weeks. It is also allowed to schedule 30-hour classes for one period only. In cuch cases classes would take place twice a week.

Principles of conducting classes in distance learning form
Due to Rector’s Ordinance No. 84/2020, distance learning classes must be conducted on Microsoft Teams on the date specified in the timetable. Lecturers are obliged to add the Dean and the relevant field of study Coordinator to the class group.

The Moodle platform can be used as a tool supporting the learning process.

Consultations
Consultations may take place remotely or stationary. Each employee is obliged to arrange consultations twice a week for one lesson hour (45 minutes). In the case of stationary consultations, students are required to make an appointment with the teacher for a specific time in advance to avoid group consultations.

Seminars
Bachelor and master seminars will be held only in distance form.

Variable university courses (KZ)
All variable university courses in the winter semester are to be held in distance form.
